Once a year, twinkling fairy lights and colourful Christmas illuminations are retrieved from damp, dusty storage spaces and used to decorate homes for the festive season.

  • Christmas Lights Guide
    Christmas Lights Guide Have a pile of burned-out holiday lights? Replacing your old lights with new, more energy-efficient options? The following guide will help you recycle old lights, pick new ones, and offer important tips for a safe and bright holiday season! Repair before Recycle! Why replace the whole string for a few broken bulbs? Before you drop off your holiday light string, see if there are replacement bulbs available first to avoid unnecessary waste. And if You Do Need to Recycle... Christmas light strings are included in BC’s LightRecycle program and can be dropped off for free at participating light fixture recycling depots. The maximum return limit for any single visit is 5 fixtures, though some sites may accept more – call ahead to ensure the depot can accept larger volumes. Find your closest depot HERE. Options for commercial generators are located HERE. Please note that some decorative fixtures, such as light-up Christmas characters and artificial trees with em- bedded lights, are not included. Some retailers such as London Drugs also provide their own in-store recycling programs for Christmas lights. Contact your local store for details. Buying New Lights? Choose LED lights. They last 7 times longer and use 90% less energy than standard incandescent strings. They are also available for both indoor and outdoor use with many colours to choose from. Using a timer for your Christmas tree lights can help you reduce your energy consumption by 30-50%. Turn your outdoor lights on in the evening and leave them on for 4-6 hours to get the most savings.

  • Holiday Greetings - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia 11/15/10 12:15 AM Holiday Greetings from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Holiday greetings - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 11/15/10 12:15 AM Holiday greetings From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Holiday greetings are a selection of greetings that are often spoken with good intentions to strangers, family, or friends, in nations around the world, during the months of December and January. Holidays with greetings include Christmas, New Year's Day, Chinese New Year, Thanksgiving (United States), and Hanukkah. Some greetings are more prevalent than others, depending on the cultural and religious status of any given area. Typically, a greeting consists of the word "Happy" followed by the holiday, such as "Happy Eid", "Happy Hanukkah", or "Happy New Year", although the phrase "Merry Christmas" is a notable exception. In the United States, the collective phrase "Happy Holidays" is often used as a generic cover-all greeting for all of the Winter holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day. Controversy has arisen in the U.S regarding its usage of the phrase "Happy Holidays", as an alleged attempt to diminish the Christian elements of Christmas, although its use promotes other holidays commonly celebrated there. Contents 1 Merry/Happy Christmas 1.1 History of the phrase 2 Happy Holidays 3 Season's Greetings 4 Christmas and Holiday Greetings 4.1 Christmas Wishes (Non-English) 4.2 Non-English, Non-Christmas 4.3 English 4.4 Other 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Merry/Happy Christmas The greetings and farewells "Merry Christmas" and "Happy Christmas" are traditionally used in North America, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Australia, commencing a few weeks prior to Christmas (December 25) of every year.
