A year after stores struggled to balance holiday shopping with spiking COVID-19 cases, some leading retailers say they are keeping what left a good impression on customers.

The latest trend for retail stores around the state is being closed on Thanksgiving Day — as well as stretching Black Friday deals across virtually the entire month of November.

Major supermarkets and chain pharmacies appear to be the last stores “standing” for Turkey Day with available hours of operation on Nov. 25.

Wednesday marks 45 days until Christmas, Friday marks two weeks until Black Friday and Saturday marks 15 days until Hanukkah.

The following list will be added to as more stores share their holiday hours for the rest of 2021.
