Stores Open/Closed Easter 2017: CVS, Target, Rite-Aid & More

Finding out what stores are closed or open on Easter Sunday 2017 can be harder than finding Waldo!

So, to save you time and a pounding headache, I did my homework to bring you this list of store openings and closings for Easter.

The list includes pharmacies, retailers, and restaurants and although it is for the tri-state area (New York, New Jersey & Connecticut), many of the chain stores listed will be closed nationwide so check where you live before heading out.

Happy Easter!
