To be outraged that Lidl shut at 9 today

[soupyspoon]

Just that really.

I mean what are they thinking?

9 pm? Get a grip.

They're probably thinking that if people can't be arsed to get there in the what, 14 hours they've been open today, they'll just have to wait til the morning.

What time should they have shut?

Omg have you rang the police

I'm sure that's the time ours usually shuts 🤷🏻‍♀️

Arsehole scum workers @soupyspoon dont they know how deliciously dirty they are ? So horribly low?! They should be ready and charged to serve you as long as you want!!

🙄

As opposed to?

What are you thinking? The staff deserve to get home to their families.

That's on you for not organising your shopping times.

FFS, shops are open all day every day.

Get a diary and time your days and evenings to organise your life. It's not hard.

Well it's open tomorrow morning? Probably until about 5pm. I don't really see the issue. Tesco shuts later so go there if desperate for something tonight?!

They are thinking they will not take enough money for them to justify staying open. They are also mindful of the issues/problems staying open late 2 days before Christmas can put on their staff

OMG REPORT REPORT REPORT! To whom I da ken.

My husband is still at work now (retail) and will be in tomorrow for a 14.5 hour shift. Nice for you if you have the time to be wandering the shops at any old hour though I’m sure. But he and I would both like him to be home now.

I nearly fell out of bed this morning when I checked the opening times of my local M&S and saw 5am to 11pm. Absolutely awful for shop workers. Good on Lidl.

Log it with 101

Bloody selfish people, going home and sleeping, I need to buy a scented candle, some barbeque sauce and a bottle of sparkling water. What are they doing?

What has been ridiculous this week is our town is manic as are the supermarkets every morning since Saturday, but this afternoon I wandered into Lidl got the doings for breakfast Christmas morning and wandered out in less than 2 minutes (one minute spent looking at the Isle of shite)

They were probably thinking that they have to restock. They were probably thinking that their staff have had a mad week with another big day to follow tomorrow. They probably advertised their opening times well in advance.

Christmas is on the same date every year.

We get the same amount of notice every year.

You have months to plan.

If you’ve left it until 9pm on the 23rd, you deserve the chaos to be honest.

What te do they usually close?

as opposed to.. what?

what's wrong with 9pm?

Has it shut earlier than normal?

They are thinking that’s the closing time and staff have homes and families to be at and with

They normally shut at 10, was relying on it, turned up at 9.30 as were loads of people who then, like us, had to exit the car park!!

I can’t imagine working in retail this time of year. I would want to shut too.
