When I looking for something on a Sunday, and one place is closed, I find somewhere that is open to get what I need.
I can't remember once thinking "I will what until Monday to shop here" when I have other options.

For anyone who works late or works a Tuesday-Saturday shift, getting in to some shops can be a pain. I usually just go find somewhere that's open when I'm available. Unfortunately that often means the bigger stores.

The ones that have been successful have been very successful. The ones that haven't, realized quickly that being open Sundays didn't work. They went back to their Monday-Saturday and it went well.

I ran my sales numbers to decide what days to close on and Sunday was the worst and Monday was the second worse day . So I am closed on Sunday and Monday . Its a matter of what days in your area are the best for sales.Thats all.
