When does Morrisons open on Easter Monday?
Morrisons stores will operate at slightly different times on Easter Monday, so don’t get caught out by the change in hours.
Stores will be open from 7am to 7pm but check your local branch’s times before you make the trip.
Is Morrisons delivering over the Easter weekend?
Morrisons is still operating home deliveries as normal over the Easter break but the current high demand means you might struggle to get a slot.
A limited number of slots are still available in the days leading up to Easter Sunday but this may vary depending on your local store.
The slots will be booked up on a first serve basis and could go fast due to high demand because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Alternatively, you can opt for click and collect at Morrisons for free.
How much supermarkets charge for click and collect delivery
HERE’S how much the major supermarkets charge for click and collect grocery deliveries:
- Asda: Click and collect is free for next day or later deliveries. But you must spend at least £25, if not there’s a £4 charge.
- Morrisons: Click and collect is free all day Monday to Thursday, from 12pm to 4pm on Fridays and Sundays, and from 2pm to 4pm on Saturdays.
- Sainsbury’s: Click and collect is free for next day or later deliveries. But you must spend at least £40, if not there’s a £4 charge.
- Tesco: Click and collect costs £1.50 if you spend at least £25, if not you’ll be charged an extra £4 on top.
You can pick up your order in store all day on Monday to Thursday, from 12pm to 4pm on Fridays and Sundays, and from 2pm to 4pm on Saturdays.
There are still slots available for click and collect services in some Morrisons branches but these will also likely go fast.
