The Fourth of July is on Friday, and consumers needing to do some last-minute shopping or looking for a meal are in luck.
That is because most retail, grocery and restaurant chains will remain open in some capacity on Friday, July 4, while banks, post offices, and the stock market will be closed on the holiday.
The origins of the Fourth of July date back to July 4, 1776, when the U.S. unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence.
However, the annual observation of the holiday only became a regular occurrence after the War of 1812, when events such as groundbreaking ceremonies for the Erie Canal and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad were scheduled to coincide with Fourth of July festivities, according to the Library of Congress. Congress passed a law making Independence Day a federal holiday on June 28, 1870.
