Christmas 2022: What's open on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and the day after in RI
Let's face it — Christmas comes with a lot of errands.
There are gifts to buy, grocery lists to check off and holiday decorations to source. It's a magical time of the year — filled with kindness, spirituality, and getting together with friends and family — but there is a lot that needs to happen to make that magic happen.
And that often involves trips to the store, and sometimes those trips are last minute.
If any of this rings true for you, here's a handy list of what big box stores are open when (though don't forget that shopping local is always an option too).
