SAINSBURY'S shoppers will want to make a note of the supermarket's festive opening hours.
Christmas Day falls on a Sunday this year, meaning there is an extra bank holiday on the following Tuesday, December 27.
This is on top of the usual Boxing Day bank holiday on Monday, December 26.
Sainsbury's has more than 1,000 supermarkets and opening times can vary across the UK.
To find your nearest store's specific opening hours, you can use the locator tool on the Sainsbury's website.
But times might change slightly from the norm over the bank holiday so we've rounded up everything you need to know.
