As we get into the final hours of Christmas shopping, don't stress about how long your list is. There's still time to get holiday shopping done. While it may be too late to place an online order (unless you're shopping on Amazon,) but you can always shop in store. Most retailers will be open on Christmas Eve, which falls on Wednesday, Dec. 24 in 2025. However, these retailers will have truncated hours.

Generally, retailers will close on Christmas Day, Thursday, Dec. 25, so Christmas Eve is your last chance to stock up on groceries and gifts. So whether you're scrambling to pick up AirPods for mom or just ran out of wrapping paper, here's where and when you can shop on Christmas Eve.
