This year, Easter Sunday falls on April 17. Many people will be decorating eggs and receiving Easter baskets. Most grocery stores, pharmacies, and large retailers are giving their employees a much-needed break on Easter Sunday.
- Aldi: Some Aldi stores in California and Arizona will be open on Easter, but locations in the rest of the country will be closed. Easter Sunday is one of the holidays on which Aldi remains closed each year.
- Best Buy: Best Buy stays closed on Easter every year. That includes curbside pickup.
- Costco: Costco is always closed on Easter, and this year is no different.
- Kohl’s: Kohl’s has a tradition of remaining closed on Easter. Drive-Up (curbside pickup) will be closed, too, so be sure to order what you need for Easter by Saturday or earlier.
- Lowe’s: For the past two years, Lowe’s has remained closed for Easter Sunday to give employees a day off. We haven’t seen an announcement for 2022 hours, but we anticipate stores to be closed on Easter Sunday in 2022 as well.
- Sam’s Club: Sam’s Club is always closed on Easter. Curbside pickup is closed, too, so be sure to place your order by Saturday at the latest. We recommend getting your order in early, as this service will likely be in high demand during Easter weekend.
- Macy’s: Macy’s will be closed on Easter Sunday, per the recently updated hours on its store pages.
- Target: Target has a history of closing on Easter and will remain closed this year, too. Expect Drive Up and grocery delivery to be in high demand the day before for the Easter holiday and plan to order what you need as far in advance as you can.
- HEB: Stores, curbside pickup, and home delivery will all be closed on Easter Sunday.
- Publix: Publix locations will be closed on Easter Sunday. In the days leading up to Easter, most locations will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. so you can stock up on your Easter brunch pantry essentials.
