Default Department stores open to Midnight & beyond?

I was just wondering if there are any Wal-Mart stores, or any department stores, for that matter, who are open until midnight?

Superstore and walmart.
you'd find an inflatable mattress at either of them... more likely at walmart.
go quick since they close at 11pm

I doubt there's much demand for furniture businesses to open their doors late night. They dont really get people who needs furniture on a whim

why not find a hotel to stay for the night?

Except, earlier in the song, he also had a bed.

it's 5 past 11pm and i think you're hooped for finding something now

time to improvise and start building a nest with all your clothes/towels/jackets on the floor. use flat sheets of cardboard as support.
use newspapers as a blanket for that added hobo effect

Are Superstores's open 24 hours all year round, or just Christmas?

I've been in Calgary for over 20 years and I still sleep on the floor.

You could also get a sleeping bag or something. I'd recommend an inflatable mattress as well but you'd need the pump too. I think you're going to have to sleep on a bunch of clothes/towels tonight as things are all closed now.

Just cruise Forest Lawn, you'll find a nice used mattress in a few minutes.

Use my mothers logic: every time you need new furniture, drive to Edmonton and go nuts at Ikea.

Why would he need to go all the way to Edmonton?
