Open Letter to the Retail Zeitgeist
Dear Retail Stores,
Experience shows that if you close at 5pm on Sundays, the most likely time for me to arrive at your store is between 5 and 6 on Sunday. Please take this into consideration when setting hours; would you make more money between 5 and 7 on Sunday or 10 and noon on Wednesday?
Sincerely,
Mr. Bearded Curmudgeon
Dear Ten Thousand Villages,
I've heard there's some neat things in your store. I saw stuff in the window I wanted to buy today. However, apparently the only time I'm in the vicinity of Cherry Creek North is Sundays. Your policy of not being open on Sundays has so far prevented me from buying your fine merchandise.
Sincerely,
Ten Thousand Annoyances
