Stores open Christmas 2021: Hours for Walgreens, CVS and Safeway, but Walmart, Costco closed
Didn't wrap up your holiday shopping yet? If you were counting on a last-minute Christmas run through the aisles of Walmart or Target you may be out of luck.
Both chains are closed for Christmas Saturday along with the majority of other major retailers and grocery stores.
Costco will be closed Saturday and next week on New Year's Day. The wholesale club traditionally stays closed on major holidays including Thanksgiving, Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day. Sam's Club and BJ's Wholesale Club are closed, too.
But drugstores including CVS and Walgreens will have many locations open, as will several convenience stores including 7-Eleven, Wawa, Sheetz and Cumberland Farms if you need a gallon of milk or another gift card.
