People around the world look forward to Black Friday each year, hoping to snag unbeatable deals on products they've had on their wishlists for months. But what exactly is Black Friday? It's the day that follows Thanksgiving in the United States, which is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. This year, Thanksgiving falls on November 27, so Black Friday will be observed on November 28.
How Did Black Friday Originate?
The term “Black Friday" has origins dating back to the mid-20th century. Interestingly, back then, it was not linked with shopping but with chaos. Police in Philadelphia first used the phrase to describe the chaos that followed Thanksgiving, when huge crowds would flock to the city for holiday shopping and the annual Army-Navy football game. The overwhelming traffic, packed streets, and pressure on the police force led officers to term it “Black Friday". Later, retailers adopted the term and gave it a more positive meaning.
Why Are All Companies Announcing Sales?
For companies, Black Friday is more than just another sale time on the calendar. It is a crucial opportunity for businesses to boost their profits. The huge discounts offered during this period often contribute significantly to their yearly revenue. The massive price cuts draw in millions of shoppers. Plus, retailers use the day to clear out their old stock. Special deals also help attract new customers.
Which Online Shopping Websites Are Offering Discounts?
The growing trend of online shopping has turned Black Friday into a global event, with deals that stretch for an entire week or at least until Cyber Monday. Here's where to find the best deals this year on e-commerce platforms.
