Presidents Day deals include sandwich, food and drink specials
View Date:2025-01-13 23:07:24
Presidents Day isn't just a federal holiday and a good day to buy a television. It's a good time to get a break on lunch or dinner.
The holiday originates from George Washington's Birthday (Feb. 22) becoming a federal holiday in January 1879. Celebration of our first president's birthday moved to the third Monday of February under the Uniform Monday Holiday Act, passed in June 1968. With the date often approaching that of Abraham Lincoln's birthday (Feb. 12), marketers and advertisers began promoting Presidents Day sales and events.
The Mount Vernon website suggests readers contact their congressional representatives and ask them to bring back Feb. 22 as Washington's Birthday. And Lincoln deserves his own date, too, because of his guidance of the U.S. through the Civil War and issuing the Emancipation Proclamation, Douglas Brinkley, a presidential historian and professor at Rice University in Houston, told USA TODAY in 2022.
Meanwhile, you can try to find a bargain. If you're not in need of a new TV, maybe you need cookware, or a home appliance such as a refrigerator or microwave.
