Grocery and Drug Stores Open Around The South Puget Sound On Christmas

Walgreens should be open Christmas Day, including pharmacies at most locations. Use the store locator to check yours. Rite Aids should also be open. Note that I haven’t confirmed either of these, but it’s been true in the past.

7-11 and most other convenience stores should be open.

Fred Meyer, Costco and other local stores are closed.

Safeway is open early in the day. Most locations close around 4PM. I believe the same is true of Albertsons.
