Which Stores Are Open on Thanksgiving 2023

The holiday season is officially here, bringing with it a few changes to normal shopping schedules. Whether you simply forgot to pick up an important ingredient for that Thanksgiving Day feast or you’re just wanting to get an early start on those Black Friday deals, some stores are keeping their doors open and welcoming customers on Thanksgiving Day 2023, Thursday, Nov. 23.

Given that Thanksgiving is a big day for travel, travelers will be thankful to know that 7-Eleven is open on Thursday, meaning you can stop in and grab a road trip snack before hitting up Thanksgiving dinner. However, as with most stores that will be open, hours do vary by location, meaning you will want to check local store hours. Early risers can also get a boost of energy with a trip to Dunkin’, as the coffee and doughnut company will continue operations, but guests are encouraged to check the Dunkin’ Mobile App to confirm local store hours. Meanwhile, for the first time, most Walgreens locations will be closed on Thanksgiving, but Walgreens’ 24-hour locations will remain open.
