Last-Minute Shopping Options for Christmas

If you’re running out of time before Christmas, don’t worry – there are still some stores that remain open on December 25th. While hours may vary and it’s always a good idea to call ahead, here are some options where you can find what you need.

Grocery stores like 7-Eleven, Acme, Albertsons, Casey’s General Store, Safeway, Wawa, and others will be open on Christmas Day. However, not all grocery stores are included in this list – Aldi, BJ’s Wholesale, Costco, Food Lion, The Fresh Market, HEB, Kroger, Publix, Ralphs, Stop & Shop, Trader Joe’s, Wegmans, Whole Foods, and Winn-Dixie will be closed.

On the other hand, retailers like Amazon (where you can still purchase a gift card), Circle K, CVS, Duane Reade, Dunkin’, Starbucks, Walgreens, and most major movie theater chains will remain open on Christmas Day. Meanwhile, big chains like Walmart, Target, and Costco are typically closed but may reopen the following day with clearance sales in store.

If you can wait until Christmas Day, shopping at retailers like Amazon or visiting a store for last-minute deals may save you a lot of money. Just be sure to plan ahead and call ahead to confirm hours before making your way to any of these stores.
