Maryland shoppers get a mixed bag for New Year’s Day shopping, with Costco shutting down while other major grocery chains keep their doors open.
What’s Happening: Costco warehouses will close completely on January 1. Giant Food stores will stay open regular hours on New Year’s Day. Harris Teeter locations will keep their normal business hours. Food Lion stores will also maintain regular hours.
What’s Important: You’ll need to skip Costco for your New Year’s Day shopping, but you won’t face the major restrictions hitting other states since Giant, Harris Teeter, and Food Lion are staying open.
How This Affects Real People: Whether you’re hosting a New Year’s Day party or just need groceries, you’ll have plenty of shopping options as long as you avoid Costco and stick to the other major chains.
