Wintrust Business Lunch

Steve Grzanich has the business news of the day with the Wintrust Business Minute.

The Chicago metro area was home to the third most porch thefts in the U.S. in 2023. The website Safewise analyzes data on home safety and says the Chicago area had 2.7 million porch thefts last year, involving nearly $262 million in stolen merchandise.

Chicago is the third-best city for foodies in America. That’s according to a new study that used social media hashtags about restaurant visits for its ranking.

There are a handful of stores open on Christmas Eve for last minute shoppers. Grocery stores like Costco, Jewel-Osco, Kroger, Mariano’s, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods and more. Target, Kohls, Walmart, and Costco will be open on Christmas Eve, but will close on Christmas Day. CVS and Walgreens will be open both days at most locations. All 24-hour Walgreens locations will be open as regular.
