Shoppers at Mansfield’s Four Seasons will be able to begin their Sunday shopping trips even earlier from next week, as the centre is opening its doors at 10am.

“We have opened at 10.30 for a few years now,” said Four Seasons Centre manager Rebekah O’Neill. “While Sunday shopping has become just another part of our everyday lives, many of our customers have said that they would prefer to be able to start just a little earlier in the day. After we discussed it with our retailers everyone agreed that, from next Sunday, we will be opening our doors earlier.”

From Sunday, 2 October, the centre will still trade for six hours on a Sunday, but will now open at 10am and close at 4pm. “Everyone knows that the early bird catches the worm, so we’ve lined up some special Sunday morning activity for shoppers to celebrate our first earlier opening,” said Rebekah.

“We’ve listened to what our customers and retailers wanted and have made this change so that hopefully we will make shopping even easier,” said Rebekah. “With free parking all day and the earlier opening time, we’re looking forward to welcoming even more shoppers to the centre on Sundays.

“We’ve lined up great give-aways for the first Sunday we’ll be open earlier, and there’s even a special surprise competition for those who are worried about missing out on the extra half an hour in bed,” she said.
