    I bet they aren't. And it's not a Leap Year.
    They should change the name.

    Never quite understood why he changed the name to 365. As far as I recall, they're closed Christmas Day, St. Stephen's Day and Easter Sunday, open every other day.

    Legally, I suppose they don't claim that the 365 represents the days of the year. But still, an odd name to use if not for that purpose.

    The name is a great marketing ploy; it screams out 'convenience'

    You could name a shop "24 - 7 - 365" and only open for 2 hours per day, 1 day a week. It's nothing but a name (albeit a schneaky one!)

    It's a brilliant name: do you see a thread here about Tesco or Dunnes? No. But Joyces .. yup!

    Maybe so, and even though Joyces is nearer to my house than Dunnes I usually go to Dunnes anyway as it is cleaner, cheaper, better stocked, has more tills open and is easier to park outside.
