If the intense heat dome won t keep you from celebrating Independence Day, neither should forgotten hot dogs, lack of decorations, or need for a road trip snack. Thankfully for you, many businesses will remain open on July 4, though they may have different hours than usual. As you would expect, banks, post offices, and government offices will be closed for the day – partially because the holiday falls on a Saturday this year, too. Also as usual, Costco and Raising Cane s will be closed on July 4. Both businesses close for major holidays.
