"Sweetest Day is an observance celebrated primarily in the Great Lakes region and parts of the Northeast United States on the third Saturday in October. It is described by Retail Confectioners International as an "occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed." Sweetest Day has also been referred to as a "concocted promotion" created by the candy industry solely to increase sales of candy."
Whatever the reason for the origin of Sweetest Day, you better be prepared with a nice greeting card on October 18th for your Sweetheart! Let the people in your life know how much you care about them on Sweetest Day and also everyday! I offer a wide variety of real paper greeting cards for any occasion at Lora Severson Photography at Greeting Card Universe. Choose from Thinking of You, Miss You, I Love You as well as anniversary and birthday cards. Add optional personalization and Greeting Card Universe will take care of the rest and mail the card directly to the recipient or to your home. You choose. Cards are professionally printed on high quality paper and delivered with a nice presentation.
