Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and many stores will be closed on this Thursday that we consume mass quantities of food with family and friends.

Thanksgiving is a day we practice giving thanks and showing how grateful we are for our loved ones. In the past, retailers often used the day to kick off Black Friday sales events. However in recent years, many shops have closed for the entirety of Thanksgiving Day, offering only their online platforms for consumers and giving employees time off with their families.

I think it's cool these retailers shut down for Thanksgiving, allowing employees the opportunity to watch football and grub down on turkey dinners with their families. Honestly, I think more businesses should follow suit.

While some retailers do stay open on Turkey Day, here's a look at a few Abilene retailers that will close their doors on Thanksgiving.
