Why is there never any milk in shops on a sunday evening?

Shmuck

why don't shop keepers stock up on it when they know theres gonna be a high demand for it during this time?

Cause they are getting more the next day. And they do stock up on it, but prefer to under rather than over stock something with a high turnover. Should've got up earlier tbh.

I think cows get a rest on the weekend

Because it's all been sold to more canny shoppers who know about the conspiracy not to have any milk after 7.30pm on a Sunday.

Please note that we now know that you know - be careful!1eleventy!

Why don't you stock up on it on Saturday when you know you're going to run out on Sunday?

But the people need milk today damnit! Because of poor planning by these milk nazis I along with thousands others will have to do without an adequate breakfast tomorrow. Its not on. I'm taking this issue to the Dail.

Also, I like many others travel back to the city in the evening from my hometown, therefore I can't buy it any sooner.

What a coincidence. Just my thoughts a few minutes ago at the shop, luckily I got the last one:)

People think everything should be at their disposal 24/7. I wouldn't care if all shops were closed on Sundays. It would just mean we'd need to be more organised like the good old days where we obeyed the Sabbath.
Anyways you can still get milk in some shops on a sunday night, I have just gotten 2 litres:p.

That's what the shop owner should be asking himself. At least we common consumers have an excuse for being absent minded, the shop owners should be maximising profit.
