The restocking schedule varies from store to store. In general, stores tend to follow the schedule of eight inventory cycles per year. Each cycle lasts approximately three weeks and there are two types – A and B. Some stores may open earlier or later for a split cycle starting at 12:00PM rather than 9:30AM if they want to show off stuff after hours. Stores on regulated holidays will not have an inventory cycle during those days since the retailers can’t sell anything until their next day opens up (days like Christmas Eve where they’re closed).
