The August bank holiday weekend is only a matter of days away.
Some people in Ireland might flock to the coast for a bit of vitamin D, others might have a barbeque in the garden with a few cheeky bottles. Or it might be a time where you get all the extended family over for a well-overdue roast dinner.
Whatever you’re doing, it’s likely that you’ll need to go to the shop - but there might be changes to the hours of your local supermarket this weekend. Some places will simply operate Sunday hours on the bank holiday Monday while others will have complete changes.
