May the 4th be with you in savings

Forget Cinco de Mayo. In our house, it’s all about May 4th– as in Star Wars Day! If you’re unfamiliar with this relatively new celebration, it’s a pun on the movie saying, “May The Force be with you.” It first began in 2008 and caught on quickly among the millions of Star Wars fans worldwide, thanks to social media and Star Wars fan pages on Facebook.

We wait all year to binge watch our favorite Star Wars movies, and we even bring out our old Star Wars comic books to read. (No fair weather fans here.)

My husband is looking forward to getting his geek on while saving money on some Star Wars gear. If you’re a Star Wars fan and in the mood to celebrate this year (especially with a new Han Solo movie coming out at the end of this month!), check out the savings below.
