How to Create Special Days

"National" Days Definition

National Splurge Day

Date When Celebrated : This holiday is always observed on June 18

Today is not a day for penny pinchers, anyone on a diet, thrifty people or Ebenezer Scrooge. It's National Splurge Day, oh Yeah! Let's open the purse strings, eat to excess and have some fun.

There are certain dates on the calendar that you look forward to with great excitement. You mark the date and wait in eager anticipation. For me, National Splurge Day is one of those very special days.

National Splurge Day is a day to treat yourself excessively, to anything you want. Do it in style, let there be no limits today. Isn't that a great thing? Go out and buy that boat you've always dreamed of, go to the spa and get the deluxe treatment, or buy that pricey new outfit you've wanted. Maybe, you're on a diet, and that special dessert has too many calories. Maybe, you want to buy a steak, and the budget is a little tight. Have a little extra of your favorite ice cream, splurge a little and go out to a fancy restaurant for dinner. The options are endless. Toss out your reservations about spending over your budget, and go for it today.

Celebrate this day to the fullest degree. Treat yourself to whatever you want and to excess . For, this is indeed a day to splurge. Do so without worry or concern...until tomorrow. To keep in the spirit of the day, you may not want to balance your checkbook or step on a scale until tomorrow.

The History and Origin of National Splurge Day:

This day was created by Eventologist Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith.

We did not find any documentation confirming this to be a "National" day. We found no congressional records or presidential proclamation. Do you think some Splurge in congress would spend time and energy to make this a national day?
