BEWARE BLACK FRIDAY HYSTERIA<br />
WHAT IS<br />
BLACK FRIDAY?<br />
Black Friday is an annual shopping event that originated<br />
in the United States. Traditionally it takes place the day<br />
after the American Thanksgiving holiday (which is the<br />
fourth Thursday in November).<br />
Black Friday marks the unofficial start of the what can be called the<br />
‘holiday shopping season’. It is famous because in the USA, retailers<br />
offer amazing discounts and fabulous low cost promotions, slashing<br />
prices on various in demand products.<br />
These days, many local retailers start offering early access to Black<br />
Friday “specials” or even run a Black Friday month long event with daily<br />
specials offering discounts. And Black Friday is often followed by some<br />
sort of Cyber Monday, with lots of specials on tech and IT gadgets.<br />
Black Friday sales can be quite substantial, and it’s not uncommon for<br />
people to wait in long lines overnight or go shopping at the crack of<br />
dawn to get the best deals. We have all seen those videos of people<br />
storming into stores and knocking over old grannies to grab sales<br />
items.
