A common one in German is Erdbeerwoche (strawberry week).

    I have never heard this expression. Which part of Germany is that from?

    I have heard it in numerous places. More predominantly in west to north-west states. But I also remember that TV ads have used this term. So I would say it's used nation-wide.

    I seem to have missed it in the north east and central Germany. Then again, I don't think I ever heard someone say something other than "Ich habe meine Tage" except for some creepy dudes with skeleton T-Shirts talking about being brave seamen that don't fear the red sea. Which I always found kinda icky.
