Memorial Day, a federal holiday that honors and remembers those who died while serving in the United States Military, will soon have many celebrating a long three-day weekend. But if you have the day off on Monday, what's open and closed?
Here's a roundup of what to expect:
Retailers
Most retailers, including big chains like Target, Walmart and more, will remain open for the holiday, many offering major sales and discounts.
Some, like CVS pharmacies, may be open but will have adjusted hours due to the holiday. Shoppers will want to check the hours for their local store.
One major retailer, however, will not be open for the holiday: Costco. According to Costco's website, the whole store observes the following holidays: New Year's Day, Easter Sunday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
