Ok, I just spent ten minutes writing something and my internet cable fell out before I hit the post button. Heres the short version.
Happy Holiday's is a plural word. Christmas and New Years are the implied holidays. If you want to wish someone a happy christmas, you say "Merry Christmas". If you wanna wish someone a happy christmas and new year, you say "Happy Holidays". Does this make sense? Im guessing most people have a couple weeks off for both Christmas and New Years. Being as you probably wont see people until after new years you wish them a Happy Holdiay, which includes Christmas AND New Years.
This is ridiculous. I also heard that Walmart cashiers arent allowed to say it to the customers.
