Post-Easter Sales

A week ago was Easter – and along with the religious seriousness of the holiday, there are several secular traditions that go along with this fun day. The Easter Bunny and Easter candy is very popular for this time. But I think the part of the holiday that people enjoy more than the actual day of Easter are the clearance sales of Easter items that follow immediately after the big day. Yesterday, a week after Easter, I saw people running through the grocery store and snatching up any Easter candy that was marked as being on sale. There is something about the words “clearance” and “candy” that makes people lose their minds! Proceed with caution at any grocery store – you might get trampled by the Easter sale mob.
