Let’s not pretend you’re going to Morrisons on Boxing Day because of a genuine emergency. You’re going because the house is too quiet, the telly is rubbish, and you need an excuse to wear your new slippers outside. Admit it.

It’s also about the solidarity. You’ll bump into other bleary-eyed people doing the exact same thing. You’ll share a knowing nod over the cheese aisle. It’s a community of survivors.
Need a bottle of wine to get through the afternoon? Morrisons has got your back, usually until around 5pm. Check the local times first, because nothing ruins a Boxing Day like arriving at a locked door.
Last-Minute Cheat Sheet (Because Who Plans?)
If you’re too lazy to Google, here’s the safe bet: Assume 10am to 5pm. If you turn up at 4:55pm, you might get a side-eye from the staff, but you’ll probably still get your milk. They’re heroes wearing name badges.
Morrisons also often puts a special notice on their website a few days before Christmas. So if you’re reading this on Christmas Eve, panic not. Just pop over to their site and squint at the “Store Locator” section.
Remember: It’s not about the shopping. It’s about escaping the relatives for twenty minutes. And getting more cheese. That’s the real Boxing Day spirit.
So go on. Grab your coat, dodge the leftover wrapping paper, and venture forth. Morrisons is waiting – but only until 5pm. Don’t snooze on that Yule log.
