What’s open Christmas Day? The list includes CVS, Starbucks and 7-Eleven — but not Walmart

Whether you forget an ingredient for the Christmas meal, a gift or want to go out to eat, your options will be limited Wednesday.

Christmas is the one day of year that the nation’s largest retailer, Walmart, closes all of its locations and several regional and national stores also follow suit.

According to Womply, a small business software provider, 92% of local retailers are closed on the holiday and four out of five restaurants are closed.

But all hope isn’t lost. 

Your mileage may vary on how far you’ll have to drive for any forgotten items but drug stores including CVS and Walgreens will be open on the holiday. So will several convenience stores including 7-Eleven, Wawa and Cumberland Farms.
