What stores are open Fourth of July? J.C. Penney, Macy's, Target, Kohl's and Walmart are but Costco is closed
This Fourth of July will be the last for Pier 1 Imports and closing J.C. Penney and Tuesday Morning stores.
The liquidation of 136 closing J.C. Penney stores started June 17 and another 13 locations in the department store chain began their going-out-of-business sales Friday.
Shopping will look different this holiday weekend because of the coronavirus pandemic. More stores are offering curbside pickup and will ask shoppers to wear masks.
J.C. Penney also is having a sidewalk sale outside 85% of the locations that are not slated to close, officials told USA TODAY, adding all but two of the company's 846 stores have reopened.

With at least 21 states pausing reopening or taking new steps to limit the spread of COVID-19, what stores will be open Saturday will vary depending on where you live.
