Memorial Day lands on Monday, May 29, 2023. The national holiday honors all those who have died in military service to the country. While Memorial Day’s official observance is one of somber remembrance, the holiday weekend often marks the unofficial start of summer.
Parties and money-saving sales will be going on throughout the Memorial Day weekend. On the actual holiday, May 29, you might have some last-minute grocery shopping to do or hope to catch the best Memorial Day sales before they end.
Since Monday is a federal holiday, expect to see some stores closed, like mom-and-pop shops and Costco. Yes, that’s right. Costco is closed on Memorial Day, but it's open the Saturday and Sunday before the holiday.
Beyond that, most grocery stores, department stores, and other large retailers will have regular hours on Memorial Day. Check with your local stores to see if they have special holiday hours before you head out.
