Pet Peeve - If you say you're going to be open until a certain time, then BE OPEN!
My brother and I ran (literally) to Vuori to quickly buy a pair of pants for him to wear for a pickleball tournament the next morning. We wanted to pop in, buy them and that's it. Regardless, we got there at 856pm (at the time, their hours were until 9p. I notice they just changed them to 8p).
We arrived at 856pm and the door was locked! There were still customers inside. The sales associate gave me the 'we're closed pantomime' through the window from across the store. I motioned her over to talk to me through the door. I said - You're supposed to be open until 9p, we just want to quickly buy a pair of pants. - She said, sorry, the cash registers are shut down and we're closed! - (Not sure how the customers inside were going to pay if they wanted something... maybe she would just tell them to come back tomorrow to pay?)
Bottomline - If you want to GO HOME at 9pm on the dot, then adjust your closing time accordingly. But if you're open, then be open! I can't believe that the manager of the store, whose income is probably partially dependent on how well the store does, is perfectly ok with turning away sales so that the employees can get to their after-hours activities!
Very disappointed and won't buy anything there, even if they decide to be open.
