This Sunday, November 27, a day off from work for most people, can be an opportunity to do some last minute shopping, and to get a head start on the preparations for Christmas. This Sunday, after Black Friday, is one of the ten Sundays when shops will be open for business, as approved by the Inter-island Trade Advisory Commission. These are, in particular, the establishments (and their opening hours) that will open their doors, exceptionally, on the last day of this week.
Supermarkets
El Corte Inglés: The El Corte Inglés supermarket on Avenida Alexandre Rosselló (Palma) will be open from 9:00 am to 9:30 pm and the one on Jaume II from 11:00 am to 8:30 pm. The Supercor centre in La Vileta will also be open from 9:15am to 9:15pm.
Carrefour: some of its stores will be open from 9am to 10pm, such as the hypermarket located between General Riera and Ocimax or the one in the PortoPí shopping centre in Palma.
Mercadona: the supermarket chain will remain closed.
Alcampo: The Alcampo hypermarket in Marratxí will be open from 9am to 10pm.
