Sunday schedule for certain. A handful of low ridership buses do not operate at all on a Sunday so check the schedules. Bus and Subway transit will be at 15-20 minute headways (between trains). The commuter rail will be on a 2-hour headway. While bus and subway will operate till around midnight and some after that, the commuter rail will be taking their last runs between 9 pm and 11 pm in general. Again, schedules will give a better insight. Just go to the MBTA web site and locate the bus or train of interest and it will lay out the schedule.

Most of the ready made foods at area markets are coming from the same central kitchen supplier. Compare the products and containers.

Reply to Are lobster sellers open on thanksgiving? by AegonIXth
No help on the question but pretty much everything will be closed on Thanksgiving and the MBTA will be operating on a Sunday Schedule which is worse than what they are doing now in many areas. Load up on everything you will need in advance.

Pretty much all major grocery chains will have this, but getting staff to add words may be a problem, but the confection aisle will have the needed colored gels to do that. Stop & Shop, Shaw, Star, Roche, Wegmans, Market Basket, etc. BJ and Costco require a paid membership (about $100/yr on average) to shop their shelves.

Reply to Not having a Walmart in Boston hurts working class folks much more then helps small businesses by drtywater
Unfortunately for the working class, all I see in social media is a calling for stores like Walmart and Target close in favor of Trader Joes or Whole Foods. Drop the wages arguments and think of the low income shoppers. It seems that no one considers that.
Classism, ageism, and self-entitlement there. We can also toss in a handful of racism while at it when it comes to that argument.
No matter how you cut this up there are both the plus and minus. No one wins any of these debates.
