Feb 18, 2015 at 15:20 comment added Chris H - UK In at least some parts of France, 7j/7 can mean six days a week of "normal" opening hours and a really quite brief opening period on Sunday morning. France has quite strict (but regionally variable) Sunday trading laws, they're debating changes at the moment. I've not tested it in other parts of Europe but you should avoid making assumptions about how much of the day a shop will be open at the weekend.
Feb 18, 2015 at 15:13 comment added Orace As French, I can tell that this is totally accurate. Also as a math guy, I want to put the focus on the fact that 7/7 (read 7 over 7) is a division. And this division means it is open 100% of the days of the week. Also the '24/7' for a French (and a math) person is a bit disturbing. The first time I see '24/7' I instantly thought: 'How on earth can you be open 24 days a week !'
