With Christmas and the first night of Hanukkah happening this week, you might want to check the list of what stores are open (and closed) twice.

From retail to grocery chains, many companies across the U.S. close early on Christmas Eve and shut their doors entirely on Christmas Day, while others opt to cut back hours. But there's also a handful of businesses that stay open on the holiday.

Before you run out the door this Christmas -- whether it's to buy last-minute gifts or simply get out of the house -- it's wise to double-check operating hours, which can range by location.

When in doubt, call ahead or look up more specific schedules for spots in your neighborhood online.

Here's a rundown of how major chains are closed or operating on Christmas Day.
