it's called that because, traditionally, it's the day churches opened up their alms boxes to give to the needy... and the day people box up their unneeded stuff to donate to charities... and the day (or close to it) when gifts are given to those in service professions (like garbage men and postmen). =D
I am a believer in Jesus Christ, mother to my fur-baby Brodie, middle school Bible teacher and Registrar, scrapbooker, musician, amateur photographer, and much more.

My uncle David said it was called that because everyone boxed up their gifts to return them to the stores. :)
