Like every year of late, there has been a push by some folks to not shop on Thanksgiving. Stores have taken to being open at midnight, then 9 p.m., and nowadays even earlier for "Black Friday" sales, even though it's still Thursday. On social media, most people I know fall into one of two camps: 1) All retail should be closed on Thanksgiving; 2)

I fall into camp 1. I will not shop on Thanksgiving Day and will make a point of supporting companies like Costco and Nordstrom who will be closed.

We are open til 3pm on Thanksgiving but I don't mind that because it is a grocery store and people need to run in at the last minute and buy stuff they forgot. We are completely closed on Xmas which is nice.

People who leave Thanksfiving early so they can go stand in line at Target or wherever are terrible people.
