Catering to the true procrastinators, the majority of stores and malls across the nation are opening early Sunday and will close by dinner time with a few exceptions such as Burlington Coat Factory, CVS Pharmacy, Dollar General, Kmart, Ross, Target and Toys R Us and Walgreens. You'll also find some grocery stores below with longer hours.
