Easter opening hours - are shops open on Good Friday? Guide to supermarket opening times

The long weekend is finally here, and we have four days of uninterrupted rest and relaxation to spend with friends and family over Easter . Whatever you're planning on though, you'll want to make sure you're stocked up.

Whether you're throwing a party, an easter egg hunt, a barbecue or an Easter roast feast, you'll want to make sure you pick up everything before putting your feet up.

If you're unsure, we'd recommend checking your local store on their websites with the links below, and with some days times may differ store to store.

We've even found ways of saving cash on your Iceland shop, thanks to cashback site Quidco, you can save £15 on your shop. Just click through this link , and follow the steps through to the site and you can get £15 cash back off your shop.

This offer will only work for new customers though, and you'll need to claim before 30 April.
