Thanksgiving 2020 Grocery Store Hours In PA: Giant, Acme, More

While Thanksgiving celebrations are going to be more muted than normal in 2020, no doubt there will be plenty of feasts prepared. And when feasts are prepared, ingredients are sometimes forgotten.

If you need some last-minute cranberry sauce or whipped cream on Thanksgiving, there are plenty of grocery stores in the Philadelphia area that will be open for your last-minute shopping needs.

In contrast to previous years, retail giants Target and Walmart will not be open on Thanksgiving.

Both chains made the decision in response to the coronavirus pandemic. In a statement released on its website, Target said the company’s goal is to "make the holiday shopping experience simple, safe, and stress-free."
