When is Black Friday Shopping Day
Black Friday Shopping Day is the day after Thanksgiving in the United States every year, the last Friday in November.
Black Friday, is the craziest shopping day of the year for Americans. On Black Friday, the vast majority of stores will open their doors at five or six o'clock in the morning, some even earlier. Merchants will use early advertisements in newspapers a few days before Thanksgiving, issue coupons, and reduce prices on goods dramatically to attract customers.
There are several ways to describe the origin of Black Friday, one of which is that because store discounts usually start at midnight at the end of Thanksgiving (that is, at midnight on Friday), people who want to buy bargains have to rush to the malls at night to line up in the dark to buy promotional merchandise, which is considered to be the first time that a store opens its doors for Black Friday. This is considered to be one of the origins of "Black Friday".
There is also a more common theory that this day is the first day that stores open after Thanksgiving, followed by the traditional and grand American Christmas, when people usually start their Christmas shopping, and many stores are flooded with shoppers and thus have a large amount of money in their pockets. Malls in the United States generally use different colors of ink to keep track of their books, red means loss, black means profit. This is why they call this Friday Black Friday, in anticipation of a profitable day.
November and December are traditionally the peak shopping seasons in the United States, and Black Friday is the craziest shopping day of the year for Americans. And store employees use the name Black Friday to poke fun at themselves, saying it's a busy day.
