Christmas brings cheer, love and of course, the holiday rush. Love it or hate it, we all can agree that the holiday season is like no other. No matter how good you think you plan for the holidays, odds are you’ll find yourself running out to the store to grab last-minute goodies on December 24. We’ve all been there, and luckily, many stores will be open on Christmas Eve. But when things get super last-minute and you need to pick up items on Christmas Day, you’ll be hoping that some of your local stores are still open, at least for a portion of the day.
The good news is that some stores will be open on Christmas Day, including CVS, Walgreens and Acme – just be sure to double-check your local shop’s operating hours as they can be subject to change.
Although many grocery, drug and retail stores will be open, superstores like Costco and Target will be closed on Christmas Day. Sometimes it’s just easier to go to the store that has virtually everything, and that’s where one-stop-shops like Walmart can save the day. This year, the superstore will be closed on Thanksgiving, and with this in mind, you might be wondering what Walmart’s Christmas hours or New Year’s Day hours will look like in 2023.
