If you are starting a thread which relates to a certain date or date range, please put the date(s) in the title.
If you put in words such as today, tomorrow, yesterday, this week, next week, last month you can confuse the readers.
If a particular store is holding a specific promotion for "today only" once "today" is over the promotion has ended but it is possible that the thread will get occasional posts to it which brings it back to one of the front pages of the index.
When you look at the index you can only see the date of the last posting, not the date the thread was started. And if people start somewhere other than the first post they can't tell when date is really meant.
This can confuse and/or annoy people when they find out this special was ten days ago.
I know it takes a couple of seconds extra typing, but you help out lots of people.
