    Not asking you to, but if you could hire somebody to work the extra day and still give you the time off but still make a profit would you not try?

    Not talking about a one man business or man in a van here.

    Also not saying anybody works 7 days a week. Well run this could put people back on to 5 days.

    no one can be so desperate to shop!
    Because if you run a retail outlet you are missing out on potental business. Also what about people that work 6 days as it is? When do they get to shop as bike shops dont even have a late night?

    Also as said before many people buy on a whim, if they have a day or two the sale is lost.

    I know thats why I live here , doing what I love to do ,

    Cool, then in your situation this does not apply. This is a retail issue.
