Pretty much all stores are open, including Walmart, Target, and Kmart, but many are closing earlier than usual.
Walmart stores are closing between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., depending on the location. On the other hand, Walmart Super Centers will stay open all night as usual.
Most Best Buy, Kmart, and Macy’s stores will close at 7 p.m., while most Target and Toys R Us locations will close at 8 p.m. or 9 p.m.
Store hours do vary across states and regions, so it’s best to call the specific location if you’re running out later in the day.
