Each May, we honor our fallen soldiers on the Memorial Day holiday (this year, it falls on May 29). For many, the three-day weekend signals the start of summer with cook-outs, trips to the beach, and neighborhood parades draped in red, white, and blue. Many stores and businesses close their doors in commemoration of the day. It’s a federal holiday, so the banks and post office will be closed. But you might find yourself in need of last-minute essentials or ingredients for Memorial Day recipes. Before you grab the car keys an head out the door, you need to know which stores are open on Memorial Day.
We rounded up all the grocery stores and convenience stores open on Memorial Day for your last-minute needs. Rest assured that go-to spots like Walmart, Target, Kroger, and Aldi all have you covered come May 29. However, we do still suggest calling your local stores for updates, especially since some will vary by location. (Also, there are lots of restaurants open on Memorial Day, like Starbucks, if you want to grab carryout.)
