New England used to have blue laws that prohibited working on Sundays for some types of shops.

Actually the blue laws were in Massachusetts and many of them were overturned because of the competition form New Hampshire.
As a former small business owner myself I can tell you that if a store is locally owned and operated the owner, unless he/she is an idiot will take advantage of every opportunity they can get. When I operated my business I was open on ALL the major holidays, why? Because that is when most folks that work 6 days a week, have time off.
If the local Gilford stores aren't open when folks are available to shop, then there will be some real estate opportunities available very soon for sale or lease!
