I don't know where you obtain your statistics from but have read at this.
Research
GFK NOP RESEARCH 2008
A poll of 1000 adults taken between 28th-30th March 2008 revelaed that 88% of people did not notice, did not realise, or were not bothered at all by big shops being closed all day on Easter Sunday.
2007: We asked respondents whether they thought at least one day of the week – Sunday – should be different from the rest of the week, or not, and two thirds of respondents said yes. More women than men thought so, (70% v 61%).
