Full list of Easter bank holiday opening hours for major supermarkets: Tesco, ... trends now
As the Easter bank holiday weekend rolls in, many of us will have plans which could require some last-minute shopping.
Whether you are buying the chocolate for the Easter egg hunt, getting a bottle of wine for a generous host, or grabbing some extra veg for your slap-up roast, the last thing you need is to be caught out by unusual opening hours.
While smaller shops can open whenever they like, even on Easter Sunday, stores over 280 square metres must obey different trading-hour requirements.
