Christmas isn't the best time for last-second grocery shopping in Massachusetts. Your options are very limited for full-service grocery stores, so if you waited on the roast beast, it might be too late.

Most major food stores, like Stop & Shop, Target, Trader Joe's, Walmart, Wegmans and Whole Food, will close early Christmas Eve and be closed throughout Christmas Day, reopening at normal hours on Dec. 26.

Places like CVS, Rite-Aid and Walgreen may be your best hope at grabbing anything to eat in a pinch. The pharmacies will be closed at those locations, and even most 24-hour locations will close early Christmas.
