Fake Holiday's In Montana

There are lots of holidays in America. Some have even been made into federal holidays allowing you to get the day off from work. Then there are some holidays that you might not even known about. These "holidays" are usually made up by a company or a brand looking to increase sales.

Why Are Fake Holidays Created?

Companies are constantly trying to think up new ways to sell you their products. One of the most unique ways of doing that is by inventing holidays. While Hallmark hasn't invented any "holidays" there are plenty of holidays that get called "Hallmark Holidays". Most people assume that they invented Valentine's Day; however, that is not the truth.

Now perhaps some of the holidays on our list are familiar to you. Some of these holidays have actually done some good as well. All of them, however, are the brainchild of a company looking to get their brand more awareness, increase sales, or get people to use their products in one way or another.

Fake Holidays Can Be Fun Too

Is this article revealing the truth about them going to stop them from happening in Montana or prevent you from taking part in them? No, and I am not trying to accomplish either one of those things either. Heck, I take part in a lot of them myself. I think we can all agree something like "Small Business Saturday" is a positive thing in our community.

Just know that some of those "holidays" that have you saying, "Hey, when did this start to be a holiday?" probably were thought up a boardroom.
