If paycheck week falls the week of a vacation (not a paid vacation), when do we get paid?

Payday is every other Wednesday, so we should get paid November 11th and then Nov 25th (day before thanksgiving). No problem, in fact it works out great, cause then I can use all my extra money from that paycheck for Black Friday…. Except for the fact that we’re closed for the entire week November 22nd – November 29th. This will also be the case for the week of Christmas (we should get our paychecks on December 23rd).

We’ve had issues in the past with our paychecks not coming in on the day they’re supposed to because it’s “a holiday and/or vacation” so I was just wondering if they’re allowed to hold our paychecks because it’s a vacation, or if they’re required to hand them over on November 25th.
I don’t care if i have to go pick them up from the corporate office myself if they’re not willing to drive them out to our location, but is it legal for me to do that if they’re unwilling? Is it legal for them to tell us we have to wait until after our (unpaid) vacation to get our paychecks?
