Teachers and Nurses are Among the Most Celebrated in April/May

When it comes to which observance generates the most sales in April/May, last week's e-poll says that National Teacher's Day/Week is on top. Teacher appreciation garnered slightly more than 39 percent of the votes. National Nurses' Day pulled in close to 35 percent, while Cinco de Mayo ended up with only slightly more than 4 percent. The "don't know" category raked in almost 22 percent of the votes cast.
