don't you think laws should be in place for companies NOT to open on US holidays?? I don't think its right that companies be open on major US holidays such as thanksgiving and christmas and easter when most familes get together... thanksgiving is the biggest travel holiday of the year and some major us compaies are open today
only one state that LIBERAL massachusetts requires companies and major retailers to be closed.
For the second year in a row, CompUSA Inc. and BJ's Wholesale Club Inc. are opening their doors on Thanksgiving. The exception are stores in Massachusetts where local laws preclude holiday hours. CompUSA also added an extra incentive for consumers this year by providing pumpkin pie for those in line.
Iconic toy store FAO Schwarz — with locations in New York, Chicago and Las Vegas — is set to open its doors on the holiday as well.
In the past, holiday shopping on Thanksgiving Day was limited to discount stores like Kmart and Wal-Mart, as well as grocery retailers and 24-hour convenience stores like 7-Eleven Inc. Kmart, operated by Sears Holdings Corp., is taking it one step further, offering for the first time Thanksgiving Day specials on TVs to GPS systems.
