The week between Christmas and New Year is always chock-full, as people hold belated celebrations, trawl through Boxing Day sales, and prepare for their New Year’s celebration.
In among the mad rush, stores like Best & Less are here to help with a last-minute outfit, or any much-needed Christmas gifts you might have otherwise left too late.
They’ve helpfully provided their hours for the Christmas/New Year period, so you can meticulously plan to your shopping needs, and hopefully avoid the mad holiday rush as it takes us into 2022.
While some store hours might be subject to change, you can keep scrolling for the state-by-state breakdown.
