Staples skips Thanksgiving — again
Once again, Staples will be closed for Thanksgiving.
Bucking the Black Thursday trend once again, Stapes will close its stores this year on Thanksgiving in order to give customers, employees and their families time to enjoy the holiday. Stores will reopen on Black Friday at 7 a.m. in a majority of locations, according to Staples.
“We know that the holidays are a special time for creating memories with loved ones and at Staples we want to ensure that on Thanksgiving Day our customers and associates are able to do so,” says Steve Matyas, CEO, Staples Retail. “For customers looking to relax while shopping from home on Thanksgiving Day, we’re proud to offer a wide range of convenient and flexible shopping options with amazing deals on Staples.com.”
When stores re-open on Friday, Nov. 24, customers can take advantage of different services to complete their holiday shopping. These include the company’s buy online and pick up in store option, as well as Staples’ in-store pack and ship service, a program that helps customers pack and ship merchandise via UPS. Free next-day online shipping is also available to shoppers who spend $49.99 or more. (Orders must be placed by 5 p.m. local time, excluding weekends and holidays.)
