Free
Shipping Day
– This day was begun in 2007 by Luke and Maisie Knowles with the
intention of extending the online shopping season. There was a time
when Cyber Monday was generally the most popular day for online
shopping. After that, most people were afraid they wouldn't get
their items in time for Christmas so they didn't shop online again.
Now, Free Shipping Day is another very popular day for online
shopping. I was not able to find out from their web site,
http://www.freeshipping.org/,
exactly when this day is to be celebrated this year. Some other
sites declared it to be on this day, others said it is tomorrow on
December 18th.
Still other stores hold their own free shipping deals not related to
this specific day.

American Aviation Day –
This day celebrates the first successful flight by the Wright
Brothers. See Wright Brothers Day below. The purpose of this day is
to increase interest in aviation in all of the American countries in
order to expand cultural development and increase communication
between all of these countries.
Wright Brothers Day – On this day in 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright finally succeeded in their endeavor to invent a mechanically propelled aircraft that is capable of flight. History was made and aircraft have made one heck of a lot of progress in just 110 years.
National
Maple Syrup Day – Well, if you're going to have maple syrup
today, you have to have something delicious to have with it like
pancakes or french toast or waffles.
International
Talk With A Fake British Accent Day – This day was created by
Louise Gale and Derek Nisbet, founders of the Big Apple Brits. They
have planned some events in NYC to celebrate this day and everyone is
encouraged to talk with a British accent for these events.
To
celebrate today, talk with a British accent all day while you shop
online for some maple syrup. Make sure that it will be shipped to
you free by airplane from another North or South American country. Good luck finding maple syrup made in a South American country.
