Ahhh here we go into the holidays. Never a better time to be reminded of who's open and who's closed, especially once you have the family seated at the table for a holiday celebration and realize you have no ketchup for the kids' table, and little Suzy won't eat a bite of anything without it, am I right?

The good news is you will have a few options for stores that remain open on Thanksgiving. The better news is that the trend of big retailers closing so that their employees can spend the day with their family continues, as most major stores will be closed the full day.
