Shop opening hours in your country

[crazy canuck]

I do most of my food shopping at small shops.  My butcher is open 8-6 Tuesday-Saturday.  My baker is open 7-6 everyday (but I like to get there early to get the bread out of the oven).  The place I get my fruits and Veggies is open 10-6 everyday.  The grocery store where I get everything else is open 8-10 everyday.

I like wandering WalMart at 3 am.

Yeah, me too.  But I suspect for different reasons.

Shouldn't the baker or one of his employees be doing that?

I'm not checking out the women. 

I go to Target for that.

I go to Target for that.

I wish to buy things, but not be seen the public at large.

The term "at large" seems especially appropriate for some customers.

There are places without 24 hour stores?  What barbarism.

I don't do much shopping so don't take a great deal of notice. 

Most shops in towns and cities in the UK stay open till 5.30 pm, some till 6 pm. 

Supermarkets generally till 8 pm, though the largest ones often until midnight, some in the larger cities stay open all the time.

The now modified Sunday trading laws still apply, so all medium to large supermarkets have to close at 4 pm or at least only open for a maximum of I think 6 hours say 10 am-4 pm. 
Generally most other shops, other than convenience and corner shops in cities don't open on Sundays.

In London there's a few big 24 hour supermarkets (or McDonalds) and lots of little 24 hour convenience stores. Aside from that it varies, in the community areas I'd say shops are open roughly the same as mongers describes, but then in the retail areas normally open until 8-10.

The supermarket where I shop is open 8am - midnight Monday through Saturday. I guess most retailers in my city are open about 10am - 8pm, Monday - Saturday. Most shops are closed on Sundays.

Why would I want it sullied by their hands?

Just curious. Who does the shopping in your house?
