back to sensible opening hours and closing on Sundays

24 hour opening, Sunday opening, and internet shopping are all things
which are very expensive for (food) retailers. But it's all about
marketing rather than profit, and nobody can afford to stop now unless
everyone else stops.

And of course now the great unwashed public are used to shopping
whenever they feel like it, so there'd be a lot of squealing if it
stopped. I can guarantee even as I type there are folk banging on shop
windows all over the country trying to work out if they're open or not.
