Ohio Christmas Grocery Store Hours: Giant Eagle, Aldi's, More

The holidays are here and that means it's a perfect time for emergency trips to the grocery store. To save you the humiliation of driving around to closed stores, Patch has compiled a list of Ohio grocery stores that will be open or closed on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Many stores have varying hours, so always remember to double check with the specific location to make sure the doors aren't locked when you arrive. Patch has noted the stores that did not respond to repeated requests for Christmas store hours. Patch will update the hours as more trickle in.

We wish you the best of luck keeping your loved ones fed and happy through the holidays. Here are the store hours.
