While the clock is ticking for all you last-minute holiday shoppers, stores are making some changes to accommodate the final frenzy!

Those changes include marathon hours perfect for procrastinators.

Kohl's is staying open around the clock, 24 hours each day through Christmas Eve.

Macy's is staying open from 7 a.m. until midnight Christmas Eve.

Toys R Us, Target and JC Penney are also offering extended hours.

"A lot of retailers know that you haven't gotten your gifts yet so they are going to be putting out some big deals to try to catch your attention," said Mary Beth Quirk of Consumerist.com.

But it's not just shopping to worry about, but shipping too.

UPS expects to deliver 34 million packages Monday, their busiest day of the year.

Tuesday, meanwhile, is the last day for postal service express shipping.

As for those ditching stores for websites, Monday is the last day for Walmart.com's rush shipping and Amazon.com's two day shipping, which is free for Prime members
