Nope. Not in the '80's, (not in the UK). Sundays were your day off, to go to church, spend time with the family, Sunday roasts. Anything but shopping.

Do you remember when fizzy drinks (pop/soda) had a 10p refund on them?

Us kids used to raid the trolley at the back door and take them back inside for another refund 🤣🤣
Had to cook the sausages up so went full monty.
Hide and seek but with a base camp of a lamp post, telegraph pole, or tree. If you made it from your hiding spot back to base without being tagged you were safe. Get tagged before you got back and you were out.
