Why are people okay with shopping on a weekend?

I work retail and it never ceases to amaze me how many people choose to shop on a weekend. This weekend has been insanely busy. People get stressed because it's busy but then they are choosing to shop... Before people say 'people only get chance to shop on a weekend', well I'm sure that's true for some but the majority would be able to shop during the week on an evening. Surely it's better to avoid weekends? I can't be the only one who actually looks at the forecast and makes some forward planning to AVOID shopping on a weekend at all costs?! The last place I'd want to be on a weekend (particularly when it's 30 degrees) is Morrisons!
