It’s not an unusual occurrence. You’ve spent weeks preparing for Christmas and that annual feast. But, wait, could it be? How is it possible? Despite all the lists, and even checking them twice, you’ve forgotten the extra batteries or the creme.
Should you find yourself in this situation, fret not. Here is a list of some of the stores braving the tills this Christmas day.
Take a sigh of relief. Shoppers Drug Mart might just be your biggest hero this Christmas season. They carry pretty much everything under the sun, from food to toys and everything in between. In order to save yourself from looking like a looney-bin, you should resist the urge to kiss the cashier. All three Kamloops locations will be open. Christmas Day hours: 10 a.m to 6 p.m.
Who doesn’t love a little wine with their big turkey feast or some Baileys in their morning coffee or hot chocolate? If you’ve somehow underestimated the required amount, don’t worry, because Sahali Liquor Store will be open for all your boozy needs. Christmas Day hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Emergency eggs, anyone? If you happened to forget to stock up for the big Christmas breakfast, Denny’s has your back. Fill up your belly with warm, satisfying goodness, and leave the clean-up to the professionals. You’ve earned this! Christmas Day hours for all Kamloops locations: 6 a.m. to 3 p.m.
7-Eleven is not kidding around when it comes to 24/7 service. Every location is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Whether you’ve forgot the road-trip snacks or the spare batteries, this is one store that guarantees you won’t be left hanging.
OK — so Cineplex is not quite the holiday hero that will get you out of a jam if you’ve forgotten the milk. But if you want to get out of the house on Christmas Day, you can always catch a showing of the Last Jedi or whatever other new release you are dying to see with the fam. See showtimes here.
