Weekend versus weekday footfall on the same block
On Tran Khat Chan, weekday mornings bring solo buyers with short lists. Weekends bring pairs and small family groups who negotiate out loud near the entrance. The same door mat and basket stack that helped weekday flow became a bottleneck when strollers and shopping bags arrived together.
Two timed mornings showed weekend visitors spending less time in the rice section and more time at a gift display near the door. Weekday visitors moved deeper into the store before making a first pick. One layout cannot please both patterns equally; the useful question is which pattern funds the rent.
If your weekend and weekday crowds differ this sharply, mark the entrance zone as a separate study problem. A full walkthrough can still cover both, but the notes should keep the two calendars apart.
