That was the original name for today, a day of remembrance to mark the day that the guns of the First World War fell silent: 11 AM, November 11, 1918. The name was changed after the Second World War to Veterans Day.
Armistice Day was not meant to be a day of retail sales.
This song seems appropriate. You can guess as to why.
