This Strikes Me as Odd

This morning I was heading into WalMart to get something for our potluck covered dish dinner after worship today. Leaving, I saw this sign on the door:

Extended Hours

Closed December 24-8:00 pm-

December 26-6:00 am

Here's the question, how does a 24 hour WalMart say that closing 34 hours constitutes "extended hours?" The shame is that the answer is easy. In the past, our WalMart closed at 6:00 pm on Christmas Eve. By closing two hours later on Christmas Eve, our WalMart increases the number of hours open this year by 0.39% over last year.
