These Jerk Shops Will Be Open on Thanksgiving.
Not only do Thanksgiving traditions vary across families (both biological and the chosen ones), communities, and regions, they also tend to evolve over time. This applies to menus (such as the inclusion of Brussels sprouts as they became fashionable in the early 21st century) as well as shopping habits.
For some, overcooking lunch while waiting in line for discounted electronics became an annual occurrence sometime in the 1990s or early 2000s. But that tradition has faded in recent years as retailers have responded to criticism for ruining what should have been a “family holiday” for shoppers and employees alike by closing stores on Thanksgiving.
For reference, here are some of the nation’s retail stores that will remain open on Thanksgiving Day, as well as some that will be closed.
