🖤Black Friday 🖤

🛍Black Friday refers to the day just after Thanksgiving in the US. Because so many companies have a four day weekend, many people begin their Christmas shopping on this day. Now it's common all over the world

🛍️ It is believed by many that the term Black Friday derives from the concept that businesses operate at a financial loss, or are “in the red,” until the day after Thanksgiving, when massive sales finally allow them to turn a profit, or put them “in the black.” However, this is untrue.

A more accurate explanation of the term dates back to the early 1960s, when police officers in Philadelphia began using the phrase “Black Friday” to describe the chaos that resulted when large numbers of suburban tourists came into the city to begin their holiday shopping and, in some years, attend Saturday’s annual Army-Navy football game. The huge crowds created a headache for the police, who worked longer shifts than usual as they dealt with traffic jams, accidents, shoplifting, and other issues.

🛍Black Friday is often reported as one of the busiest shopping days of the year.

🛍Shopping malls are packed with people, parking lots are crowded, and lines at stores are very, very long.

🛍Some stores even open at five or six in the morning because there are so many people. Other stores have discounts and sales to draw even more customers.
