I am happy to see that over 50 retailers have decided to stay closed on Thanksgiving Day this year.
That’s right, you’ll find an entire list of Stores Closed for Thanksgiving below. 
Several years ago, I began to see a sad new trend.
More and more stores which had previously been closed on Thanksgiving, were now opening their doors in an attempt to make a few more sales during the busy holiday shopping season.
Closed for Thanksgiving Sign
I am happy to see that the trend to cut Thanksgiving short is beginning to change once again.
It started with just a few stores putting up the Closed for Thanksgiving Sign, but it has grown and now more than 50 stores are joining in and putting up their own Closed for Thanksgiving Signs!
