TWO more major retailers have confirmed they will shut their stores on Boxing Day so staff can have two days off over Christmas.
CDS Superstores, trading as The Range and Wilko, will close all their branches on December 26.

Alex Simpkin, chief executive officer for CDS, said: “This year’s been another great one for the business.
“We’re grateful to all our incredible team for their dedication and hard work and believe everyone deserves a well-earned rest during the festive season.
“So, in appreciation, we’ll be closing our stores on Boxing Day to give our team the opportunity to enjoy a full two-day break with their families.”
It is common practice for retailers to close their stores on Christmas Day but not all shut branches the following day.
The Range closed its more than 200 stores on Boxing Day last year.
