What does it mean when a firm extends applications?

I noticed a job in O2 closing today, I ran down to the store on Saturday morning with the application as I wouldn't have time to post for delivery today, so handed it in to the manager, just happened to look at the Jobcentre website this evening and its been extended another week. Why would they do this? I can only think that they haven't received any suitable applicants myself included I guess.

Sometimes it's because the boss thinks it hasn't been out long enough, sometimes it's because the amount or standard of applicants is low, sometimes because the date was wrong in the first place, or that the recruiting manager is on leave [half term perhaps] and they think they may as well leave it open.
All sorts of reasons.If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.0 -
Could just be that by re-listing it often with a short deadline it stays higher up the list on the website.0
