Christmas is here, which for millions of Americans means last-minute gift wrapping, baking cookies for the anticipated arrival of Santa Claus and wearing your coziest pair of matching pajamas.

Most grocery, retail and restaurant chains will be closed on Christmas Day after many remained open on Christmas Eve, albeit with adjusted hours.

If you need to make a last-minute run to the grocery store to pick up something for your holiday gathering, Target will not be an option for you this year, as the company announced their stores will be closed on Wednesday, Dec. 25.
