Earth Day is almost here! The first Earth Day in 1970 was a small event by comparison. Today, many stores and restaurants have special Earth Day sales, deals, and offer free items on this day. Several shopping malls and centers also have Earth Day promotions. Free recycling of electronics, earth-friendly reusable tote bags, and discounts on purchases of energy-efficient light bulbs and appliances are all common on April 22. Sometimes, these special promotions extend the entire Earth Day Weekend or for several days preceding the holiday.
Earth Day shopping hours are usually the same as they would be on any other weekday. Call your favorite stores and restaurants for their specific Earth Day hours of operation as well as information on any Earth Day sales and deals they may be offering.
Be sure to do something positive for our planet and show your respect for the Earth. Earth Day only comes once per year. For 2025, it happens on Tuesday, April 22.
