Commercial dates???? Today is already Mother's Day. It's crazy how fast this year is passing. I feel like we are going from one "commercial date" to another in a blink of an eye. What I mean by "commercial date" is a date when we usually celebrate something and, above all, when we see a lot of advertising to buy something or to give gifts to other people. I would like to know if there is an expression that native English speakers use instead of "commercial date". Next, we will have Valentine's Day, I think. Boys and Girls will try to guess what their loved ones would like to get, and depending on the gift, more or fewer dollars will be leaving their pockets.

What I mean by "commercial holiday" is a date when we usually celebrate something where and, above all, when we see a lot of advertising to buy something or to give gifts to other people. I would like to know if there is an expression that native English speakers use instead of "commercial  holiday".

I totally agree with you Yamile. A kiss or a hug, when you mean it, will always be the best choice!

There is a gift very cheap and great...a kiss and a strong hug, with love...as the Beatles said 'all you need is love'.
