Shopping
Hours in Britain
Shopping hours in Britain
are changing. Until a few years ago, shops were opened at nine
o’clock in the morning and closed at half past five or six o’clock in the evening.
Some also were closed for an hour for lunch. In many towns, shops were closed
on Wednesday afternoons. On Sundays, nothing was open. But now some shops are
opened for longer hours. Some big shops and many supermarkets never close! If
you need a litre of milk or some bread at midnight, you can easily buy it.
For people who work long hours or
people who often work at night or early in the morning, like doctors, the new
shopping hours are good. If someone finishes work at five o'clock in the
morning, they can go to the supermarket on their way home and buy some
breakfast or a newspaper or anything else they may need.
But not everyone thinks the new
shopping hours are a good thing. Some people say that Sunday is a holiday – who
wants to work in a supermarket on a Sunday? But shops are very busy at the
weekend and longer shopping hours are here to stay.
