I don't think there should be any restrictions on what can be sold when, or have anything to do with the size of the
store.
However, there clearly has to be some rules in place to protect workers, etc.
e.g. you should not be sacked for refusing to work on a Sunday. - though nowadays the working days would be part of the
contract before you went into the job. But if a store decided to open on Sundays (they all dont, and one of the major
department stores is only just going to open on Sundays) - it cant force existing workers to work on Sunday.
Given that, I am old enough to remember Sunday being something 'special' (I am not religious) in terms of being a family
day - visiting relatives, day in the country, etc.
Making everyone take some time off isnt a bad thing.

lawrence
