It’s always a good idea to double check that the place you are heading to is open as each location may be different from the rest. But in the Tampa Bay area, these are the places that have listed they will be open this Thursday July 4th. So if you run out of mixers for your drinks or need more chips or a few frozen pizza’s, there are plenty of places that you can go to find those last minute items.

I was just in Publix a few days ago and they have a ton of BOGO deals right now for your long holiday weekend. It’s nice when you can find really good sales before the holidays. Plus they have all sorts of cakes and cookies with the 4th of July theme. If you need plates, napkins and other small decos, most grocery stores will carry that as well.
