Okay. I like a bargain as much as the next person, but I'm wondering why Memorial Day, a day designated to remember our fallen Vets (and has grown to remember the dead, in general) and used to be called "Decoration Day" because that was the day to put flowers on graves, became a day exploited by commercialism Sales?
Just what do Sales have to do with Memorial Day?
Why is this a good time to give discounts of anything from mattresses to cars? And is this a bit disrespectful to the memory of those the day was meant to honor?
It just rubs me the wrong way.
