As one of the holiest days in Christianity, Easter is an opportunity for families to come together and celebrate getting through the past two years. The days of drive-through communion and YouTube services are fading, and people are gathering to celebrate.
Egg hunts can be more expensive, but once they’re finished and the Easter feast nears, you might inevitably discover you’ve forgotten a key ingredient. Or you might just want to chuck the idea of a home-cooked meal and head to a fancy brunch.
Either way you should be covered, but if you’re looking to do some Easter shopping, it’s a bit more hit-or-miss. Here’s a look at which stores are open and closed on Easter 2022.
