In recent years, stores across the UK have announced they will be closing their doors over the festive period so staff can have a well-deserved break spent with their friends and family.
While most stores tend to shut up shop on December 25, more shops are now carrying on the break into December 26 by giving employees the day off on Boxing Day.
From retail park stores to local supermarkets, shops are beginning to announce their festive opening hours ahead of Christmas to ensure that shoppers are well-prepared for the closures.
