Celebrate (Anti) Youth: National Grandparents Day

Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, your birthday . . .

There are plenty of let’s-celebrate-you-at-whatever-stage-in-life holidays, so why not Grandparents Day?  It’s perfectly logical, but until recently I didn’t realize there actually is a Grandparents Day—and it’s coming up on September 12th!

To be honest, I wish I had known about this holiday a long time ago.  You see, my last living grandparent died just a few weeks ago.

Don’t worry:  I promise I won’t make this a depressing read, but the storybook moral is this: take advantage of the time you have left with your grandparents, and if you spoil them with just an ounce of the affection they’ve shown you over the years, they’ll appreciate you all the more.

What better way to celebrate than to go on a shopping spree?  Joking aside, some of the Canadian merchants here on 58Coupons.com deserve some love and recognition.

Happy Birthday Dear U-S-A

Put your party hats on, because the United States is turning 234 this July 4th!  Even if you’re like my parents and hardly stay up for parties and national holidays, the delayed summer sunset should be ample motivation to get out and celebrate—at least until the fireworks are over.

Normally I’m the queen of planning parties, but this year I’m the one visiting a friend for the Fourth.  I’ll be in the nation’s capitol, picnicking on the Mall and watching the fireworks over the Washington Monument!  The planning I’m leaving to my host.

Last year though, my roommates and I hosted a great BBQ, where we watched the local fireworks from our house’s garage roof.  The party was a hit—how could cold beer, delicious food, amazing weather and fireworks not spell a good time?—and I got a
