Dollar Tree, for example, mandated masks last week and quietly reversed their position to just suggesting them this week. The UCBJ compiled a list to help guide you plan your shopping trip.

These businesses now require masks:

Family Dollar

Panera Bread

Starbucks

T J Maxx / HomeGoods

T-Mobile

Verizon
