 after a year that saw the country get an extra day off for the King's coronation back in May. Many of us will hope that the weekend offers more than just a bit of sunshine after a summer that has seen wet and windy weather conditions across much of the UK in July and August. Those optimistic enough may be planning a barbecue or a picnic in the park to mark the day off with friends and loved ones, but what if on the day you happen to have forgotten something and need to pop to the shop? As with any bank holiday, many supermarkets will be operating slightly different opening hours, with most shops offering a way to see your local store's times. So, with that in mind, here's when your Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and other supermarkets will be open over the weekend… Tesco August bank holiday opening times 2023 Tesco stores will vary their opening times from branch to branch, but will generally be open at their standard times. Opening times can vary store to store on bank holiday weekends (Picture: Getty) Some shops might operate shorter hours on Sunday, but many Express stores will keep standard hours – some Xtra (large) shops will open at 10am and close at 4pm on Monday. Each individual store might be operating at different opening hours – so it's advisable to check the Tesco store locator to confirm when your nearest shop is open – as this will show you the bank holiday times for your local. Sainsbury's August bank holiday opening times 2023 Many of Sainsbury's larger stores will be open from 8am to 8pm over the bank holiday, while smaller stores will largely be operating as normal. Again, however, different stores across the country may vary their hours, but thankfully Sainsbury's also has a store locator tool for you to use. If you're making the trip, check the Sainsbury's store locator, j){kind=link}
NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Good news everyone – it’s a three-day weekend!
This Monday – August 28 – is the last summer bank holiday (and the final one till Christmas) after a year that saw the country get an extra day off for the King’s coronation back in May.
Many of us will hope that the weekend offers more than just a bit of sunshine after a summer that has seen wet and windy weather conditions across much of the UK in July and August.
Those optimistic enough may be planning a barbecue or a picnic in the park to mark the day off with friends and loved ones, but what if on the day you happen to have forgotten something and need to pop to the shop?
