Sweetest Day, Saturday October 15th
Pre-order offer: dozen roses any way they like them, Godiva chocolate and free delivery, Friday or
Saturday, all for $54.99! Limited time special.
Valentine's Day is a holiday of romantic love, but shouldn't there be a holiday that celebrates love in general? -
the love we feel for friends, family, and sometimes just the world around us?
Herbert Birch Kingston, an employee at a Cleveland, Ohio, candy company during the great depression,
thought there should be. So Mr. Kingston and few of his friends got together on a Saturday in October and
passed out candy and gifts to the city's orphans, as well as those who were sick or unable to get around. It
became an annual tradition known as sweetest day, and was simply considered a time to remember others
with a kind act. The sort of thing that would make someone say, "That was so sweet of you!"
The third Saturday in October was eventually chosen as the day to acknowledge the holiday. And the purpose
for sweetest day was broadened to include... Well, pretty much everyone, from family members, sweethearts,
and co-workers to strangers you might encounter in your daily life.
Sweetest Day is gaining popularity every year throughout the US, although it is celebrated a little more in
certain regions than others. Detroit, Buffalo, and of course Cleveland have more celebrations than anywhere
else in the country, but the holiday is becoming well known all over the country.
Hallmark carried on Mr. Kingston's sweet legacy by making the first Sweetest Day card in the mid 1960's.
We've been helping people like him spread a little extra sweetness ever since. If you agree that the world
could always use a little more sweetness, share sweetest day with everyone you know!
