Well to stand up for the store, if you owned one it wouldn't make much sense to pay a staff (even skeleton crew) along with all the extra utilities. All in the hopes that some reefer may need to come in and buy $5 worth of hose. ;)

Been there done that before though and it can be frustrating, learned it's better to have a little extra before hand and take back what I don't end up using.

The store on De Zavala used to be open 24hours awhile back, but it went back to normal hours. While yeah, it would be great if every store was open 24 hours, it's just not profitable. The cost of keeping a huge store open with employees late at night for a handful of customers like you and your $8 in vinyl hose doesn't make much since. These big companies have cut costs and labor so much as it is to squeeze out more profit, it's hard to find any workers or cashiers when you need them during regular hours! :P
