For those that care, here is a complete list of retailers who will
not be open on Thanksgiving. I'm sure not all of these companies are staying closed for altruistic reasons. And I'm not saying these companies are perfect on every issue, but on this one I think they are 100% in the right.
From Costco's vice president for membership and marketing, Paul Latham:
"Our employees work especially hard during the holiday season, and we simply believe that
they deserve the opportunity to spend Thanksgiving with their families. Nothing more complicated than that."
These are the stores I will consider spending my money in this holiday season.
