Big Lots is a chain of discount retail stores in the United States. The company was founded in 1967 by Sol A. Sheinman and is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. Big Lots has over 1,400 stores in 47 states.
The company does not operate on Thanksgiving Day. All of its stores are closed on this holiday.
This policy has been in place for many years. Big Lots does not want its employees to have to work on a holiday, and it wants them to be able to spend time with their families.
This policy is beneficial for both the employees and the customers. The employees get to spend time with their families, and the customers know that they can shop at Big Lots without having to worry about crowds or long lines.
