Open yesterday? I hope they were selling fresh fish! Fish & Chip shops down here are closed Mondays because they are normally waiting for fresh fish.
Actually, I would accept small businesses may well have problems, small businesses are a vital part of the economy, I would doubt though the effects would be that serious and usually such businesses just adjust their prices to recoup losses.
