Banks
If you need to run to the bank, chances are you're in luck! Just as Good Friday is not a federal holiday, it's also not a recognized bank holiday. However, some institutions' hours may vary, and not every bank will be open.
The U.S. Post Office
The post office is open on both Good Friday and Easter, so you can receive and send your cute Easter baskets on time! While UPS and FedEx are open on Good Friday, they aren't on Easter.
Public Schools
It depends. Many schools' spring breaks actually fall over Good Friday, and the kids will be off already. Catholic schools and other private schools also frequently take the day off. Generally, though, most schools continue teaching on Friday.
Public Libraries
If you're looking for a good book to read to the kids on Easter, you're probably good to head over to your local library. Still, your best bet is to call ahead of time to confirm that they'll remain open or if hours have changed.
Stores
As with the many stores and restaurants open on Easter, major retailers are usually open on Good Friday. These stores include Walmart, Starbucks, and Kroger, and Amazon will (of course) continue to deliver.
