Welcome to Memorial Day weekend, the unofficial start of summer! 
Memorial Day is famous for great sales on everything from cars to furniture to mattresses and more. And our Memorial Day page is filled with great deals--so remember to stop here before you shop!
You'll find deals this weekend--in stores and online--for summer gear like apparel, swimsuits, and sports equipment. Electronics like laptops and flat-screen TVs are also hot sellers this time of year, so if you're looking ahead to graduation or Father's Day, this might be the time to pounce.
This past Thursday, my eight-year-old and the rest of his Cub Scout troop placed flags in the cemetery to mark each veteran's final resting place. On Monday, there will be parades and ceremonies remembering those who gave their lives in serving our country.
Don't forget to make the time this Memorial Day, amid the sales, picnics, swims and baseball games, to remember those who served and sacrificed.
