Er du superstitious eller stitious? Læs med her om fredag den 13. og snag nogle sukkerholdige deals!

Fredag den 13. er en dag, der skaber blandede følelser hos mange. For nogle er det blot en dag som alle andre, mens andre ser på denne dato med frygt, som om den bærer med sig en luft af uheld. Oprindelsen til denne skræmmende aura kan spores tilbage til religiøse og kulturelle overbevisninger. Det siges, at navnet "fredag" er forbundet med Jesu korsfæstelse, og nummeret 13 har også en mørk baggrund som det tal, der associeres med Judas, den 13. gæst ved det sidste måltid. Men ingen grund til panik! Mange personer tager det hele lidt mere afslappet og bemærker blot den lille skæbne som en sjov leg på traditionen.

Men frygt ikke, for der er også lys i mørket! Friday den 13. bringer også fantastiske tilbud til dem, der ikke lader sig skræmme. Krispy Kreme har til eksempel gjort det til en tradition at dele 13 cent donuts ud, så kunder kan få en hel dozen af deres Original Glazed doughnuts til næsten ingen penge! Det er en perfekte måde at fejre denne tilsyneladende uheldige dag på – med et sukkerholdigt grin og permanente smil.

Selv om fredag den 13. ikke rammer alle daten blot én eller to gange om året, kan det helt klart være en god grund til at tage et skridt tilbage og blot grine ad overtroen. I nogle lande har man endda egne “uheldige” dage, så fredagen den 13. er ikke bare for danskere. Uanset om dit nytårsaften eller din fødselsdag falder på denne dato, kan du altid finde noget at fejre – og hvis ikke, så er der jo altid donuts!

Så hvordan skal man håndtere en fredag den 13.? I stedet for at frygte det, så tag chancen og udnyt de gode tilbud og eventuelt afhold sjove konkurrencer med dine venner om, hvem der tør mestre skæbnen bedst! Og husk, en god attitude kan ændre enhver skæbne.

Vidste du, at i nogle kulturer er nummeret 13 faktisk anset for at være heldigt? I Italien betragtes nummeret 13 som et symbol på velstand og godt held. Og hvis du troede at fredag den 13. kun skaber frygt, så tænk igen – det er også den dag, hvor fans i hele verden bliver mindet om den berømte gyserfilmfranchise "Friday the 13th"! ?
