For those of you who forgot to get a gift for your brother’s girlfriend or step-uncle—or are simply looking for something to do on Christmas Day, we’ve got you covered with a list of stores that will be open and closed on Dec. 25, 2018.

If you were hoping to make a last minute trip to Target or Walmart, you’re not in luck: both retail chains will be closed on Christmas Day. They will, however, be open on Christmas Eve, along with a number of other stores like JCPenney, Macy’s, and Kmart.

And if you have a few hours to kill and don’t know what to do, many movie theater chains across the country will be open.
