by the end of the day vs by the end of day

These are both acceptable phrases, but they would be used in somewhat dissimilar contexts. 'By the end of the day' is more commonly used and refers to the end of a specific day, while 'by the end of day' is also correct but less common and can refer to the end of any day without specifying a particular one.
