Very poor quality rant, it lacks inappropriate use of capitals, not a single exclamation mark, not one asterisk and seems quite a reasonable statement. Must try harder<Rant>
If you close early, you miss out on sales, and don’t much inspire me to return. Simples really.

Sorry needed a vent. Anyone else get ticked off when stuff like this happens?

Yes, apparently he got really annoyed once and went "Tut".Very poor quality rant, it lacks inappropriate use of capitals, not a single exclamation mark, not one asterisk and seems quite a reasonable statement. Must try harder
Unless there were some mitigating circumstances I think 15 mins or so is pushing it a bit. Did you check it wasn't half day closing or something like that? If it wasn't then perhaps send 'head office' a brief email and ask a) were they aware of this, and b) why this was? For instance, if I were running a business and my staff had left earlier than they were supposed to, then I'd want to know about it so I could find out why - if that's what had happened.
Sorry, I meant the office/management side of the operation rather than the sales department.They are 'Head Office'
If it was my business and traffic was slow thereby meaning I wasnt paying my bills etc I think I'd stay open longer rather than shut early so as to maximise my sales opportunities, maybe that's just me though.Oh only about 15 mins or so, but still, if I knew what I wanted, or saw something nice, that’s enough to make a sale. I take your point about mitigating circumstances though.
I don’t take the point about business being slow at that time however. If that’s the case, and it’s consistent, change the standard times of opening.

If a shop advertises they are open 'till 5, and I arrive at 4.45, and they are shut, I will be very annoyed and will slag them off...
Unless...
There is a big sign in the window stating the reason for the early closure, with an apology.
Communication is everything.
One thing it is absolutely not, is my fault for not phoning to check.
