Shopping Cart Day on June 4 calls for a celebration of the baskets on wheels we use to journey through the aisles in a supermarket. The inventor of shopping carts wanted to increase the time customers spent in a supermarket in order to maximize the overall profitability rates by expanding the medium to temporarily carry items in store. The initial designs included baskets and carriage capacity factors. Many other points related to push-pull ease, wheel rotation, and material heaviness also had to be considered. In the starting days, shopping carts did not catch on as many males found the idea too ‘effeminate’ for them, while many females believed the shopping cart would be too similar to pushing a baby carriage.
Dare Day
Dare Day on June 1 is the perfect opportunity for people to break out of their shells and do something different. Yes, not all people like to take risks — and it’s this very lack of courage that makes one fall into a comfort zone where even thinking of doing something daring becomes unacceptable. Do you want to continue living a calm and boring life free of all sorts of fun activities? If the answer is no, Dare Day is the perfect time for you to break out of your shell and shock everyone around you. Dare to be different and enjoy it while it lasts!
National Cognac Day
National Cognac Day on June 4 invites you to have a laid-back day whilst enjoying one of the finest alcoholic drinks. Cognac, which originates from a town of the same name in France, is a type of brandy that many enjoy due to its distilled and fine taste. The beverage speaks of a splendor-rich atmosphere in which conversations are punctuated with sophisticated and intellectual topics. Like all things magnificent, cognac, too, has specific standardizations that must be met in order for a brandy to even be recognized as cognac in the first place. For example, a true cognac must always come from the vineyards of the six certified regions in France.
