Excerpt:

The Sunday of the first big shopping season of the holidays doesn't seem to have been given a special name by the news media or the retail industry. It sort of gets lumped into the Black Friday hooh-hah. Maybe there's also a smidgen of respect for Sunday. But what about the middle of this week, following all the fuss? At least one Twitter user (DJ Official) is suggesting "Weeping Wednesday... the day after you get the bill." Of course, it won't be a Weeping Wednesday for somebody if he or she (or they) win the record Powerball jackpot — now set at around $425 million. We'd welcome other suggestions for Wednesday in the comments thread.
