(Bentonville, AR) — Walmart is closing stores on Thanksgiving day for a break in holiday shopping tradition. Thanksgiving usually marks the start of the holiday shopping season, but CEO John Furner says he wants employees and shoppers to spend the day at home with loved ones. Walmart and Sam’s Club employees are also getting a special holiday bonus, the third this year due to the ongoing pandemic. Full time workers are getting 300-dollars and part timers are getting 150-dollars which will be included in their paychecks August 20th.
