Most people will only come in for their stuff in the week between Christmas and New Years. Likewise few people shop on Hogmanay (certainly in Scotland historically one of the quietest days of the year) and will come in the following week. All in all not a good thing though, had new comics day been the 21st with a gap week would be horrendous, give people an excuse not to bring their Christmas money to the store and a good part of it will be gone before they get there.
