But you might be wondering what B&M has planned for the key Christmas and New Year dates. Here’s everything you need to know.
Is B&M open over Christmas and New Year?
B&M will be closed on Christmas Day but will open on Boxing Day and New Year’s Day – but with reduced hours.
However, opening hours across B&M’s branches vary from shop to shop, so it’s always best to use the retailer’s store locator on its website.
You just have to enter your postcode and it will tell you your closest store and its opening hours.

Typically though, stores are open from 8am until 8pm Monday to Saturday and 11am until 5pm on Sundays.
However, this is expected to change over the bank holiday so make sure you check the store locator to avoid a wasted trip.
Are other shops open over Christmas and New Year?
Opening hours for other retailers can vary from store to store, so you should always check ahead.
Most have their own store locators that show you your nearest branch and its opening hours.
