School uniform shop...All information given says shop is open Tuesdays - Friday 10.00am - 5.00pm and Saturdays 10.00am - 3.00pm.

I arranged my diary to go today after all shop is open....Decided to ring first and tried three times only to get ansaphone telling me that sorry can't come to the phone as probably busy with customers but shop is open Tuesday - Friday 10.00am - 5.00pm and Saturdays 10.00 - 3.00pm. Well it is Wednesday and 2.00pm so decided to drive the 30 minutes over there, no snow, no bad traffic etc. Get there to see shop shut and a note on the door saying "sorry we are now closed, apologies for the inconvenience". Phoned shop and left a message no-one has got back to me...feel very irritated and want to send stroppy email but thought I would test the water with you lot first. Hubby says maybe the staff decided to take the rest of the day off and not tell the boss but this doesn't ring true with the fact that ansaphone was on from this morning... also what to do now? Keep driving the hours drive in the hope they might be open, note was so lacking information so when do we know shop is open? Is shop shut for ever or for today or for Christmas?

Bit annoying but there may be a genuine reason for it's premature closure.

It isnt term time only is it?

Since dd started school everything child related seems to be term time only, even when it has nothing to do with school

Dont go until you can get through and find out when they are open. Some places are independents and run by a family who can choose to open when they wish. So being closed one day is really just one of those things.

Most people would not buy uniform this close to Christmas so they might have just thought sod it shut up shop.
