Black Friday: See what will be open, when in Sarasota-Bradenton

Even though Christmas shopping coupons have been appearing in mail slots and inboxes for what feels like months at this point, there's still something extraordinary about traveling to a physical store around the holidays, whether for shopping or simply for the spectacle. Whatever your feelings are about Black Friday, here's where and when you may shop on Thanksgiving and the day after in Sarasota-Bradenton.
Thanksgiving Day
Most big-box retailers, including Target, Walmart and Best Buy, will be closed on Thanksgiving. This commercial technique began with COVID-19 and has since evolved into solid corporate public relations for corporate merchants. Since the outbreak, several big-box retailers have sought to become more worker-friendly; for example, Target has announced that it would provide flexible scheduling and start seasonal workers at $15-$24 per hour this holiday season.

Big Lots and Dollar General said stores in most states will be open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Thanksgiving. CVS stated its 24-hour pharmacies would be open as usual on Thanksgiving, while non-24-hour pharmacies would close at 5 p.m.

As is customary, Publix will be closed, but if you're preparing supper and discover you've forgotten something, you can still come to Sarasota Whole Foods between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m.
