Lidl to shut all 960 branches on Christmas Day and New Year's Day
A major discount supermarket chain, Lidl, will be closing its nearly 1,000 stores across the UK for a significant portion of the festive season. The retailer has announced that all of its branches will be closed on Christmas Day and New Year's Day. Additionally, most Lidl stores will also remain closed on Boxing Day. To avoid any inconvenience, customers are advised to check the Lidl store finder tool on the company's website for specific opening times.
Other retailers following suit
Lidl's decision to close on Boxing Day comes after other discounters like Aldi, as well as Poundland, Iceland, and Home Bargains, also announced that they would be shutting their doors on this day. While most stores in the UK close on Christmas Day, there are a handful of retailers that do not open on Boxing Day either.
Planning shopping trips during the festive season
With stores having varying opening hours during the festive period, customers are advised to plan their shopping trips carefully. From Boxing Day to New Year's Day, it is essential to stay updated on the changing hours of major chains. Last year, many retailers adjusted their opening hours to give their employees a well-deserved break, while others operated with reduced hours. As we approach Christmas, it is recommended to check the opening times of local stores on their websites.
Stay tuned for updates
Lidl's announcement is just the beginning, and more major chains are expected to reveal their plans for the festive season. As information becomes available, we will keep you updated on the opening hours of various retailers. It is advisable to regularly check the websites of big retailers for their updated opening times closer to Christmas.
Lidl's heartwarming Christmas advert
In the midst of all the festive preparations, Lidl has unveiled its Christmas advert featuring an adorable animal on a mission. Viewers are already saying that it surpasses the advert from M&S.
