**Stockton, CA** – With Christmas just days away, procrastinating shoppers can breathe a sigh of relief. Many major retailers will keep their doors open on Christmas Eve, December 24th, offering a last-chance opportunity to snag those elusive gifts or a festive outfit. However, hours will be adjusted, and most stores will be closed on Christmas Day.

Walmart and Target will be open, but will close early at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. local time respectively. Kohl’s will operate from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Other retailers confirmed to have adjusted Christmas Eve hours include JCPenney (9 a.m. to 6 p.m.), Home Depot (closes 5 p.m.), Lowe’s (closes 6 p.m.), Bass Pro Shops (9 a.m. to 6 p.m.), Burlington (7 a.m. to 9 p.m.), Big Lots (7 a.m. to 8 p.m.), Staples (6 p.m. or earlier standard closing time), Office Depot/OfficeMax (5 p.m.), PetSmart (9 a.m. to 6 p.m.), Petco (7 p.m.), and Tractor Supply Co. (7 a.m. to 6 p.m.).

Ace Hardware hours will vary by location due to independent ownership. Sephora hours will also depend on location and mall hours. Shoppers are advised to check store locators for specific times.

While many popular stores will offer extended Christmas Eve hours, remember that most will be closed on Christmas Day. Plan accordingly for your last-minute shopping needs.
