Although we all buy enough food to last a whole month just a for a few days at Christmas, it will all disappear quicker than we think. 

Which means you'll have to venture out into the supermarkets, but don't get caught out by the festive opening times. 

As stores change their times to give staff a well-earned break and so they can enjoy Christmas. 

Some supermarkets will even be shut on boxing day, including Aldi and Sainsbury's. 

We've broken down all the major supermarkets opening times during Christmas and New Year so that you don't get caught out.
