ALDI has announced that all of its stores across the US will close their doors for one day.
Shoppers will have to re-evaluate their shopping plans in a few weeks as the retailer observes a holiday.
The company's stores will be closed on March 31 for Easter Sunday.
This means staff will have the day off to celebrate with their friends and family.
Shoppers, however, will have to plan their Easter Sunday shopping ahead of time to avoid disappointment on the day.
Aldi closes its store for four public holidays each year and Easter Sunday is one of those, according to the company's website.

The other three holidays are Christmas Day, New Year's Day, and Thanksgiving.
Stores are open for limited operating hours on other holidays like Memorial Day, Independence Day, New Year's Eve, Labor Day, and Christmas Eve.
Therefore Aldi stores are expected to be open during their typical operating hours on the Saturday and Monday before and after Easter Sunday.
Aldi has over 2,300 stores across the country as of February 2024, according to ScrapeHero.
The U.S. Sun has previously reported on other large grocery stores that will also close their doors on Easter Sunday.
Both Costco and Sam's Club will be shut for the day so people looking to buy in bulk for March 31 must do so on Easter Saturday at the latest.

Aldi has recently expanded and become a major grocery store chain in the US and its growth is not set to stop.
The company's CEO confirmed that 800 new locations will open across the country.
CEO Jason Hart said the new branches will be open by the end of 2028.
“Our growth is fuelled by our customers and they are asking for more Aldi stores in their neighborhoods nationwide,” he said.
Aldi also shared that it planned to enter new cities like Las Vegas, Nevada.
