Kroger and its family of stores, like Fred Meyer and Ralphs, dey open till 5 p.m. local time. E no matter where you dey, one of dem stores go dey close to you when you need that last-minute stuffing or pepper soup ingredients.
As for all the electronic lovers, Best Buy don maintain their tradition of closing for Thanksgiving. You fit catch dem for Black Friday wey dey come like hurricane after Thanksgiving. No use this opportunity do something wey fit make you regret later.
A lot of people still dey gree say “Make I just shop small before I enter into the kitchen drama,” but make you sabi say Kohl’s and Macy’s don lock their doors. If you suppose go these stores, fit don dey wipe plate dey chill.
