Exciting news, everyone! It's finally here - the Euros 2024 final! And if you're planning to watch the big game tonight, you might want to take note of some changes happening at supermarkets across England. That's right, major chains have modified their opening hours so that their staff can join in on the fun and support their team. So before you settle in for the game, make sure you've stocked up on all your match essentials - beers and snacks included!
The highly anticipated England vs. Spain match is set to kick off at 8pm tonight, which has prompted some retailers to close their doors early on Sunday and open later on Monday. It's important to mention that these changes only apply to shops in England, so if you're in Scotland or Wales, it's business as usual. But for those of us in England, it's worth taking note of these changes so you can plan accordingly. Go England!
Let's start with Lidl, the bargain supermarket known for its affordable prices. They've announced that all of their stores in England will open one hour later on Monday. This means that if your local store usually opens at 8am on Mondays, it will now open at 9am after the England game. But don't worry, normal hours will resume on Tuesday, July 16th. Keep an eye out for your local Lidl's exact opening times.
Next up, we have Tesco, another popular supermarket chain. They will also be adjusting their opening hours on Sunday to allow their employees to enjoy the final. All Express stores will close at 7.30pm instead of their usual 10pm or 11pm, so that their workers can watch the game if they wish. And don't worry, employees will still be paid for their regular shift, whether they watch the game or not. And on Monday, Tesco will be back to business as usual, with most supermarkets opening at 6am or 7am. They also want to reassure customers that any online orders placed for Sunday evening will still be delivered.
Moving on to Poundland, the popular discount store. While not a supermarket, they are also making changes to their opening hours for the Euros final. All stores will operate as normal on Sunday, but will open 30 minutes later on Monday morning. Poundland has made this decision so that their workers can fully enjoy the match on Sunday night. Make sure to check your local Poundland's opening hours for exact times.
Lastly, we have Sainsbury's, a well-known supermarket chain. They will be closing both their stores and petrol stations early on Sunday across England. Over 1,000 branches of Sainsbury's Local will close at 7.30pm, while the larger stores will not be affected as they typically close between 4-6pm on Sundays. All branches will reopen at their normal times on Monday, and any online orders already placed will be honored.
