A 5th on the 3rd for the 4th

Purple flower We have used numbers before in posts here - my favorite number 944, 10,000 members, 100,000 points, and so forth. Seems as if today numbers are everywhere I look. This photo of a flower with six petals was taken at 5 Wake Forest Court Catonsville, Maryland 21228.

Since I met Marti Garaughty, "The Art of Marketing You" expert, I always am aware of marketing. So today these two come together - numbers and marketing - with a bit of holiday spririt thrown in. Wouldn't this be an ideal day to own a liquor store, and put up a huge banner out front that read:

My mom used to say this, and today I smiled when I remembered her and this silly saying. Oh how I would love to own or be the marketing person for a package or liquor store today! July 4 Eagle

Bucket of numbers Whatever your favorite numbers, have a great Fourth of July!

Margaret my dear I love that line... a 5th of the 3rd for the 4th. Your mom was a marketing natural, both clever and very easy to remember. I hope you and your hubby have a great 4th of July! In Canada we had our fireworks & concerts of the 1st of July(Canada Day) so we celebrated a little bit early. ;-)

What a great slogan for a liquor store! Your mom is one smart cookie! Isn't Marti Garaughty the best? She helped with my my banner for my AR 'inside' and 'outside' blogs! Exactly what AR is all about!

Linda, Thanks so much! You have a safe and wonderful weekend!

William, You would have loved My mom who was one very special person. Can you share some of your dad's sayings?

Marti, Maybe I should have titled this post "Mom was a Marketing Genius!" Maybe I will change it later. Hope you enjoyed your July 1st celebration.

Sally, Glad you like Mom's catchy phrase. Every year, when someone wishes me a Happy 4th, I remember Mom and her saying. This year I am glad I shared it with everyone!

Mary, My mom was a very smart cookie and Marti is also. He is the absolute best. Mom gave so much to others and so does Marti. Happy 4th to you!

Margaret, a catchy slogan indeed. I'll forego the 5th for today and just celebrate the 4th sober.

Duane, It definitely counts as long as you remember that it was my mom's saying.

Hope your 4th was a good and more important make today special!
