New Year's Day opening times for Home Bargains, B&M and Wilko

It's New Year's Day and some people will be wondering if they can shop at stores including Home Bargains, B&M and Wilko today.

With January 1 being a bank holiday, many shops have reduced opening times today and some are closed altogether.

Many people celebrated New Year's Eve at home this year due to the ongoing pandemic and if you're now running low on supplies, or need to pick something up, many of the big supermarkets are open today. You can read a full list of supermarket opening times here.

But when it comes to shopping at Home Bargains, B&M and Wilko you will need to wait one more day as all stores are closed on New Year's Day.

Announcing stores would be closed on certain days over Christmas, a spokesperson for Home Bargains said in November: "We want to recognise how hard our staff have worked throughout some very challenging times and allow them to relax and truly enjoy the break safely with their loved ones.

"Home Bargains is a family-run business, and we know the importance of being together at Christmas time, now more than ever. Our staff work tirelessly to keep all our stores running smoothly no matter what and this is our way of saying thank you to all of our staff for their hard work and commitment."

B&M announced its New Year's Day closure on its Facebook page last month saying: "To give our colleagues a well-deserved rest, all B&M stores will be closed on January 1st #NewYearsDay.

"We hope 2021 is a great year for all of our colleagues, their families and all B&M shoppers."

Usual Saturday trading hours resume tomorrow.
