Having closely followed the recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), we closed our stores to protect the health and safety of you and our associates. As city and state guidelines evolved and states began their phased reopening plans, we’ve now reopened nearly all of our stores.
We are closely monitoring the current situation in states where Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases are rising and will adjust business operations if necessary to ensure the safety of our customers and associates.
