Christmas is officially here. If you feel like the holidays are quickly approaching this year, you’re not alone. Thanksgiving came late on the calendar, so there was only a few weeks between Turkey Day and Santa’s arrival.

Even if you got all of your Christmas shopping done on time, it’s entirely possible that you realized you forgot to pick up your prescription before the holiday, or ran out of milk and wrapping paper, or needed a gift card for the white one Family elephants need play. Worse, it’s possible that you or another family member has caught a bad case of the Christmas sickness just in time for the holidays. Whatever else you need this Christmas, you may be wondering what CVS holiday hours are so you can stop by and pick up any forgotten necessities.

With many retailers and grocery stores closed on the holiday, including Walmart, Target, Aldi, Costco and others, it’s hard to say which stores will be open and which won’t.
