If you're in need of cookout ingredients or party decor on Labor Day, there's good news here: Walmart is open on the holiday. With so many customers either trying to get ahead for the week or simply follow their Monday shopping routine, this is a major relief.

All major banks, including Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and Chase, also shut down for the federal holiday. Courts and government offices also generally close their doors on Labor Day. Major restaurant chains, however, such as McDonald's, Starbucks, and Chick-fil-A, remain open on the holiday.
