B&M- 250 Stores to stay open for an extra hour during the run up to Christmas

As per title, B&M stores are staying open for one extra hour at 250 stores from this week omwards.
Some stores will be open until as late as 11pm, such as Boston, Dartford, Lakeside and Robroyston. There are others as well, although those are the ones that I spotted first

Hopefully this adjustment makes it a little easier for folks to head in to store for a browse in the week, especially the people that have a branch that closes relatively early.

    This does not surprise me at all, the company are just interested in money and treat the staff like
    Last year they increased the opening hours by one hour during the week and upto 3 hours on a Saturday (depending on size of store) with 2 days notice and expected the staff to change their plans. If you didn't like it then they were told they are free to leave and don't come back.
    They teamed up with a charity during the cost of living crisis to offer those on certain benefits that they can get white goods, childrens clothes for free, now if only they gave the staff a decent wage they could afford that stuff anyway
    I am glad my son no longer works there

    Nothing says "Merry Xmas" better than a last minute coffee and treacle chocolate bar, and a Power Rangers shower curtain

    Fantastic- I love my local B&M so much, I often have to be thrown out when it shuts at 10pm. With this enhancement, now I can stay an extra hour!

    As if they don't make enough money. A new store is opening near me just before Christmas so I expect they need the trade.
