Any Day is a GREAT Day for a sale!

What is Presidents' Day? Where did this holiday even come from? Is this just another holiday made up by retailers to have a sale on merchandise? Well I looked into this holiday that gives some of us a 3 day weekend off of work while giving others extra hours at their job.
I learned that back in 1971 the United States government set an official day to be celebrated honoring two presidents born in February, President Washington and President Lincoln. Before this day was set many people honored President Lincoln on his birthday which is February 12 and then honored President Washington on his birthday which is February 22.

Well down at UFS we celebrate President Washington and President Lincoln as well as all other presidents who have held office. However we also think it's a good idea to do as our peers and give our customers an excellent sale to shop. With that being said come to UFS Downtown Outlet Center and enjoy 20% off our everyday low priced general merchandise.
Now I must say that sounds like a good deal, but I must add that excludes electronics, oil, beverages, tobacco, discontinued, sale, clearance, appliances, furniture, and mattresses. If you know us you know that we still have a gigantic selection of items for you to choose from to receive 20% off. That's not the only sale we have for Presidents' Day though!!! Of course we have furniture on sale too! We have a Chaise Recliner by Franklin in 2 colors, sage & mocha for the great price of $299.00 as well as a 7 piece room deal (mentioned in an earlier blog) for $599.00. We have too many deals for me to name in this blog, but check out our website where the current newspaper ad is located or even just come into the store and walk around!
