Black Friday

Black Friday refers to the day following Thanksgiving in the United States, traditionally regarded as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. It occurs on the fourth Friday of November and has become known for significant sales and discounts offered by retailers, both in physical stores and online. The term “Black Friday” originated from the practice of businesses recording profits in black ink, as opposed to losses recorded in red ink. Over the years, it has evolved into a major shopping event, characterized by long lines, competitive pricing, and a surge in consumer spending.
