Anyone who's ever hosted a dinner party knows it takes a lot of preparation—and that goes double for Thanksgiving dinner! There's all the energy that goes into making the perfect spread, replete with the best Thanksgiving sides and a perfectly roasted turkey. Plus, you'll need to style some pretty table settings to really make your feast shine. With so much to keep track of, it shouldn't be a huge surprise if you forget to pick up a necessary item or two.
While there are a few grocery stores open on Thanksgiving, most of them run on reduced hours, so popping over to your local CVS is probably much more convenient. But is CVS even open on Thanksgiving? Do your due diligence ahead of the holiday by checking CVS's Thanksgiving hours right here.
In addition to grabbing any forgotten ingredients and last-minute essentials, it'll also be helpful to know the CVS Pharmacy hours if you need to pick up any prescriptions or over-the-counter medicines. Depending on what's closest to you, you can also check out Walgreens' Thanksgiving hours. Otherwise, read on to find out when CVS will be opened and closed on Thanksgiving.
What are CVS's Thanksgiving hours in 2023?
A representative with CVS confirmed to ThePioneerWoman.com that you can expect most (but not all) CVS locations to be open on Thanksgiving. This year, that's Thursday, November 23. The rep tells us, "While many CVS Pharmacy locations—including 24 hours locations—will remain open with regular hours, some pharmacy hours may be reduced or locations closed for the holiday." They recommend using their store locator tool to check the hours of your local store. You can also give your location a call before heading out. And remember, CVS Pharmacies and Minute Clinics usually have different hours than the rest of the store, so if you need to grab a prescription or schedule a quick appointment, be sure to specifically ask for those hours.
If you find yourself on the hunt for something that can't be found at a drugstore, there are other stores open on Thanksgiving, too. And while you're at it, you might want to look at Walmart's Thanksgiving hours and Target's Thanksgiving hours as well. You know, just to be extra prepared!
