Other side though, if WFH carries on being so popular why leave the house after work to pay for parking in the town centre or drive 25 minutes to the metro when Amazon or somebody can deliver the parcel to your house, you can try it on or test it at home, if you don't like it they collect from your house and return for free. Also I can see more companies allowing you to select a certain day/time for your delivery so even if you are working 11-8 just select the 8-10am delivery slot and its sorted for you.If this year causes flexible working to really take off, then shopping habits will change. If some people decide they prefer having a lie in and working 11-8, then going shopping at 9-11pm suddenly doesn't seem so weird.
Because people WFH are going to be sick to death of being in the house and are more likely to welcome a change of scenery.Other side though, if WFH carries on being so popular why leave the house after work to pay for parking in the town centre or drive 25 minutes to the metro when Amazon or somebody can deliver the parcel to your house, you can try it on or test it at home, if you don't like it they collect from your house and return for free.

I hope that would be the case but I'd more expect people to meet for lunch or food after work and a few drinks or the cinema over shopping, might just be me as I couldn't think of anything worse than spending hours walking around the shops to then buy the same shirt from Uniqlo that I bought the last time, guess I'm not exactly the target audience for shopping centres and high streets.Because people WFH are going to be sick to death of being in the house and are more likely to welcome a change of scenery.
You could see it during lockdown, people would wander down to the supermarket just for something to do other than sit around at home.
AgreeAnother diversionary tactic by the Tories?
Shops to stay open ‘up to 24 hours a day’ in run-up to Christmas
Shops could stay open 24 hours a day in the run-up to Christmas in a Government bid to boost England’s ailing high street.www.standard.co.uk
The absolute clip of these *****.
England wakes up to life after lockdown - and people head to Primark
Exclusive footfall data from Springboard shows that that retail parks are on average 6.2% busier with thousands more Christmas shoppers visiting this morning than the same day a year ago.www-dailymail-co-uk.cdn.ampproject.org
I used to work the tills in marksies and the boxing day sales produced some truly bizarre behaviour. Shutters started going up and middle aged women were commando rolling under them, running through the shop and grabbing literally anything from the racks to sort through later. As a teenager it was quite frankly terrifying.The Next sale makes middle aged women act weird for that day though, going crazy for a top thats been in a warehouse for 2 years just because it has 60% off. Can't really imagine many people are going to be going to Primark at 3am on a Tueaday morning for their £3 tshirt that wont keep it shape after a single wash.
Its the staff I feel sorry for as theyll be told least you still have a job, your shift starts at 4am, good luck getting here.
This latest lockdown has seen almost zero change for me. Sainsbury down the road still the same. Always needed mask. Restaurants all open. Butcher open. Only thing that I've noticed really is the pottery shop the kids like has shut but is doing takeaway paints and whatnot.Because people WFH are going to be sick to death of being in the house and are more likely to welcome a change of scenery.
