Easter is April 8th, so you just have two more weeks to see the Easter displays in your local Wal*mart!
Here's the calendar of when Greek and Regular (Western) Easter coincide. You will see that they are the same day 5 out of the next 10 years, so that's rather often. (The Greeks use a gregorian calendar to figure out their Easter Sundays.)
2007 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 8th (same)
2008 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 27th Western - March 23rd
2009 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 19th Western - April 12th
2010 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 4th (same)
2011 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 24th (same)
2012 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 15th Western - April 8th
2013 - Greek Easter Sunday - May 5th Western - March 31st
2014 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 20th (same)
2015 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 12th Western - April 5th
2016 - Greek Easter Sunday - May 1st Western - March 27th
2017 - Greek Easter Sunday - April 16th (same)

This year (2007) it is April 8 for the Western churches. The Western churches figure Easter as the first Sunday, after the first full moon, after the spring equinox. The equinox occurs on March 20 this year, there is a full moon on April 2, and the first Sunday after that is the 8th. This year the Eastern Othodox Easter corresponds to the Western, which is not usually the case. I don't know how the Eastern churches determine Easter.
