Mother’s Day is of course a holiday to honor the moms in our lives that is observed in different forms throughout the world. In 1872 Julia Ward Howe requested a celebration called a "Mother's Day for Peace" on 2 June of every year, though it was unsuccessful. Anna Jarvis in 1908 created the American incarnation of Mother’s Day and it became an official U.S. holiday in 1914. Other countries previously celebrated the honoring of motherhood, and those celebrations have utilized many of the characteristics from the US holiday, such as giving carnations and other gifts to your own mother. Most commonly Mother’s Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May. Traditionally it includes giving moms flowers, cards and in this case, jewelry selections from Queen of Pawns.

Here are our locations, phone numbers and hours.

For a little history of Mothers Day, it dates back to the original spring festival that it seems the Greeks paid tribute to the maternal goddesses. They utilized this occasion to honor the wife of Cronus Rhea, the mother of many Goddesses of Greek mythology.

Also ancient Romans participated in a spring festival, called Hilaria, dedicating it to Cybele, a mother goddess. This began some 250 years before Christ was born.

Quite a history is the origins of Mother’s Day. Although any day we can be honoring our Moms, Mother’s Day is a  SPECIAL day to pay homage to it. What will you be doing for the moms in your life?

Have a Happy Tax Season



Sticking your head in the sand doesn’t make it go away. We’re talking about tax season. If you’re one of those people who avoid doing their taxes, you’re not alone. Reasons for ignoring tax season are many. Filing out forms can be very confusing and intimidating for many of us. While hiring an accountant can be a very costly expense. Queen of PAWNS is here to tell you that tax season doesn’t have to cost a fortune and it is better to get it done than to owe Uncle Sam for back taxes. Also, so many people miss out on awesome tax returns when they do their taxes themselves. If you’re concerned about affording an accountant to help you with these very tedious but necessary documents, there is hope.

The IRS has created a program called Volunteer Income Tax Assistance, or VITA, that offers free tax help for qualifying taxpayers. Heads up - if you make $52,000 dollars a year or less, this could be the perfect solution for you. Here’s a link to the IRS page that goes into further explanation about their VITA program. Check it out because they can explain it better than we can. Make sure you thoroughly go through the list of items you need for your fact to face appointment with a volunteer accountant. And just to be sure that you see the link to find a VITA volunteer near you, here’s the location finder.

Now, you have no further reason to avoid this responsibility. It’ll feel good to have it done and out of the way. And once you receive your refund check, you can reward yourself and your family with a little treat from Queen of Pawns without the guilt. Pick up an Xbox or PlayStation, a new-to-you television or sound system or get bicycles for the whole family - all at a fraction of the cost of regular retail. Be smart, get your taxes over with and have a Happy Tax Season!
