"Do you think that shopping Sundays should come back?"
Since 2018, Poles can only shop on selected Sundays throughout the year. The Civic Coalition wants to lift the ban on Sunday trading, but promises that every employee will have two weekends off per month and receive double pay for working on days off. On the other hand, the Third Way suggests paying higher wages for employees who work on Sundays or granting additional days off. In opposition to these ideas, the Law and Justice (PiS) party, which introduced the ban on Sunday trading several years ago, stands.
What do you think about bringing back Sunday trading? Do you support this idea?

I respect the people who are in favor of bringing back shopping Sundays, but putting myself in the position of a working person who has less time for rest and less time for family, I believe that no, shopping Sundays should not come back.

I am a South African, we do shopping everyday of the month. but i do think Sundays its a rest day with family. So if Poles have that good days of not shopping on Sunday i support it, let it not come back.

As for me, everyone deserves one day off from work during the week and besides, it is possible to enjoy it if the shops are closed on Sundays. For the whole 6 days, they are open and one can go shopping in the morning, at noon, or in the evening.

I believe that every person should have a free Sunday to spend time with their family. You can do your shopping during the week, on Saturday as well, so what's the problem.

Shopping on Sundays is definitely convenient for the general population, but it is certainly not as big of an inconvenience considering how often store hours can be terribly burdensome for employees.
From an economic perspective, we practically do not incur any costs because neither the demand nor the supply changes, on the contrary, it helps to develop small retail enterprises, such as neighborhood shops.

I think that Sundays should be free from commerce. Everyone should find time to do their shopping during the remaining 6 days. And if something urgently needs to be purchased, there is always a store open where the owner is serving. For an employee, this is definitely a good solution. Of course, it doesn't matter when someone is free if they are alone, but if someone has a family, usually only on Sundays everyone is at home and they can spend time together.

In Poland, the opening of shops on Sundays has been the subject of many debates and controversies. The decision on whether Sundays should be trading days is mainly a political and social issue.
In the past, restrictions on Sunday trading were introduced in order to allow workers time for rest and spending time with their families. However, in recent years, various initiatives regarding the liberalization of regulations on Sunday trading have emerged.
The final decision depends on politicians, legislation, and public opinion in Poland. It is important to consider both economic and social needs when making decisions on this matter. Personally, I am in favor.

Definitely yes, they should come back. Let everyone decide what they want to do. Only the employees are a pity, but I worked shifts for 15 years, and Sunday was just a regular working day. Personally, I don't go to the store on Sundays, I prefer trips, hikes, bike rides, and many others that I can do with my children.

The economy speaks in favor of restoring commercial Sundays - higher turnover during the week, an increase in employment, and therefore greater revenue for the State Treasury. The majority of customers and store owners and retail chains are in favor of lifting the ban on Sunday trading, and students could also benefit by earning extra money on weekends.
It would be best if those interested could express their opinion, namely the employees. Maybe if such a question was asked in the last referendum, it would have some tangible effect, greater benefit.
