The four-day Easter weekend for many means Spring has well and truly sprung. And with the hottest days of the year so far recorded over this year's annual celebration, many will be wondering how they can enjoy the last of the extended time off.
Many will want to use the opportunity to invite family and friends over to enjoy the sun and warm weather, and variety stores such as The Range and B&M offer customers the opportunity to do just that with things like Easter decorations. DIY and home improvement retailer B&Q meanwhile gives customers the chance to get some work done around the home during the break, or set things up and get things fixed ahead of people visiting.
