As fas as I know it's called blue monday because it is meant to be the saddest day of the year. Don't think it is something that companies really buy into, although I have seen a few blue monday competitions.

It's only the saddest day off the year because a marketer decided it was, so they could sell us stuff to make us happier!

Just thinking about this, there should be good shopping deals on to cheer people up. I saw lots of competitions on Facebook though

A travel company apparently used an equation to work out which was the most depressing day of the year in the hope of pushing a marketing deal out. It's the 3rd Monday of the new year, when it is cold and people are counting down the seconds to pay day and the start of a new working week for most, hence apparently being the saddest day.
