Consumers who need to pick up a last-minute outfit or Chainkeen Exchangeswimwear for their Fourth of July gathering are in luck this year.

While banks and United States Postal Service offices will be closed on Thursday, most retail stores will be open on the holiday. Grocery stores and restaurants will largely remain open as well.

Companies such as Target, Walmart, Home Depot and Macy's will keep their doors open on July 4th, although most will close early.

The origins of the Fourth of July date back to when Philadelphians marked the first anniversary of American independence with a "spontaneous celebration," which is described in a letter by John Adams to his daughter, Abigail, according to the Library of Congress.

However, the annual observation of the holiday only became a regular occurrence after the War of 1812, where events such as groundbreaking ceremonies for the Erie Canal and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad were scheduled to coincide with Fourth of July festivities. Congress passed a law making Independence Day a federal holiday on June 28, 1870.
