Default Shops on Christmas Day

Is anything open tomorrow? I forgot to stock up on groceries and what about coffee shops and fast food centres and shopping malls?

Our local butcher was open 5am to 11am, but too late for them now, as it is now 11.25am..
Everything else is shut, as far as I am aware.

Hope you managed to find some food in the end.

Just FYI, Christmas Day next year is due to be on 25 December and most grocery stores will be closed on 25 and 26 December - might be worth making a note as I know it's just dreadful when these things crop up out of the blue
