First, the big players. CVS and Walgreens are your heroes. They barely blink at the calendar. Need a gallon of milk at 8 AM? Done. Want sunglasses at noon to hide your shame? They’ve got you. Most are open, but call first. A clerk once told me they’re open “until the hangover clears.” I love that.
What about Walmart? Here’s the secret. Many locations stay open, but hours are slimmed down. Think 8 AM to 6 PM. It’s not a full-day spree. It’s a tactical strike. Grab your eggnog-flavored Cheerios and go.
