1. I thought they always shut at 4 on a Sunday.

   Ahh well, good on em.

2. Yea, it’s not out the kindness of their heart for the staff, it’s because there will be little business and no doubt running at a loss for those few hours.

3. I hope the staff still get paid for the loss of hours. That would be nice

4. Same with Co-op

5. Have an upvote for not saying Tescos.

6. Never thought I’d say this, but I’m closing the bureau. For an hour.

7. LIDL is opening an hour later on Monday than normal, I assume to let people deal with their hangovers

8. This is annoying, what if I couldn’t give a shit about the football but need to shop?

9. Well done Tesco and sainsies. Maybe Lidl and Aldi should follow suit.

10. Ah yes they do the same during the America’s Cup.

11. My old firm has a night shift that starts at 10pm on a Sunday, I wonder what state the staff will be in.

12. They are going home

13. Seriously… out of the people who aren’t English (or Spanish) and the people who couldn’t give a shit about football surely they could cobble together enough people to keep a shop open for an hour and a half. I’m at my fast food restaurant shift despite feeling like crap this evening out of fear that if I called sick they would think I was faking so I could watch it…

14. Is this because otherwise they would be full of steaming drinks at 845 and then full again an hour later. of either happy drunks because we won; or angry drunks because we lost trying to get more booze and fags.

    Talking about the little express ones and not the main supermarkets.

15. Apparently Lidl are opening an hour later tomorrow.. ?

16. It’s only the small local stores as the big ones aren’t open at that time on a Sunday anyway. Can’t really see this effecting anyone

17. My brothers workplace is starting 2 hours later than usual. 8am, not 6am and they’re getting paid for 8 hours, whilst working 6, lucky bugger and management is ordering burgers for lunch aswell

18. Will they reopen if England are getting humped at half time?

19. Amazing how a football match is being given the same reverence by retailers as the funeral of a monarch.

20. Great 🙄 how am I gonna get small blue rizla, a meal deal and scratchies!?

    /S

21. Shit! Really??

22. I thought sainsburys shuts at four on Sunday anyway .
