How to get Leap Day freebies and deals at businesses, restaurants around Bradenton
The FIFA World Cup and U.S. presidential election aren’t the only things happening every four years.
February gets an extra day in 2024 due to it being a leap year, which happens once every four years due to a miscalculation of how many days there are in a year.
The Gregorian calendar, which is the most widely used calendar, estimates there are 365.2425 days in a calendar year. And it makes up for the miscue by adding a day every four years, since there are usually 365 days in a calendar year.
So what does it mean this year?
Well, various businesses are offering customers leap-day deals. Here’s a look at some of those deals around Bradenton on Thursday:
