I’m always forgetting when there’s upcoming federal holidays on the calendar.
Things like Presidents Day and Memorial Day are often forgotten for me until the week prior.
That has been a constant for me since I was a student. But back when I was a kid I enjoyed getting these days off from school. It was almost like an amazing surprise to find out about a 3-day weekend at the last second. You would think I would have the same mindset these days as a working adult, but I don’t get paid on the days that I don’t work. On the days when we’re off for holidays, we don’t get paid time off. So a random holiday means an entire day of work is lost for me. The only holidays that I actually look forward to are the ones where I can work and still go to a store afterwards and save a bunch of money. The Cannabis holiday of April 20th is a good example of this. All of the cannabis dispensaries have massive sales on April 20th and you can get hundreds of dollars worth of cannabis products for a third of the price. If you’re looking to stock up on cannabis products for a couple of months for a small amount of money, you better put April 20th on your calendar and remember it. It’s hard though if you don’t have time to wait at the cannabis dispensary. Sometimes you’ll be waiting in line for an hour or longer on April 20th if you’re at the cannabis dispensary. I ended up buying an ounce of cannabis flower products for only $50 on April 20th this year. I also bought four grams of live rosin cannabis concentrates for only $80.
