Stores closed on Christmas Day 2016
As Christmas swiftly approaches, there's one thought on everyone's mind: Oh, crap. There's still so many presentsto buy and fairy lights to untangle and your ugly Christmas sweater to retrieve from the back of the closet and Tofurky to order for your newly vegan cousin.
Here's a list of the stores that you won't be able to make a quick trip to on Christmas day. The good news? They're pretty much all open on Christmas Eve, so that's something.
And at least this list can save you time by telling you where not to bother going in a panic Sunday morning while still in your pajamas and slippers.
