NEW YORK
You may want to double-check the list of stores that are open (and closed) as Christmas approaches.
Many American businesses, from grocery stores to retail stores, choose to reduce their hours or close completely on Christmas Day. Many close early on Christmas Eve. However, a small number of establishments remain open on the holiday.
It is advisable to confirm the operation hours beforehand, as they may differ depending on the location, before rushing out the door this Christmas, be it to buy gifts at the last minute or just to leave the house. When in doubt, give them a call in advance or check online for more detailed schedules for locations in your community.
