Boxing Day 2018
Dec 26, 2018
|
Boxing Day is a day after Christmas Day. It is called “Boxing Day” because – starting in medieval Britain – servants had a day off and would receive a gift box on this day.
People often ask to find out whether Boxing Day is a statutory holiday. It is a provincial stat holiday in Ontario only – in other provinces and territories it’s not a statutory holiday. It is, however, a stat holiday for federally regulated workers and banks across the country.
Retail stores will open early on Boxing Day and you can expect large discounts and large crowds. If you don’t like large crowds and parking lot battles then try shopping on the 27th – the majority of stores will still have discounts and a good selection of merchandise to choose from
