Presidents Day is a special holiday that celebrates past U.S. presidents, with George Washington’s birthday as its starting point. This federal holiday is a time to remember those who served in the Oval Office and also a great chance to score some excellent deals. You can take advantage of discounts on everything from mattresses to meals.
The origins of Presidents Day go back to February 22, George Washington's birthday. It became an official federal holiday in 1879. Then, in 1968, Congress passed the Uniform Monday Holiday Act, moving Washington’s birthday celebration to the third Monday of February. This change made Presidents Day fall closer to Abraham Lincoln’s birthday (February 12), leading to widespread promotion of sales and special events by advertisers.
