BLACK FRIDAY

The term is synonymous with the shopping day of the year around the globe. All the brands offer huge deals and attractive discounts on this particular day. The shopaholics are on cloud nine from a week before as they get ready to benefit the most from this day and shop all that they dream of.

But have you ever thought that how this day came into existence? Why is it named so? And how did it become the most important day for both retailers and shoppers?

Let’s have a quick look into that.

What is Black Friday?

Black Friday is the name for Friday next to Thanksgiving day. It is the busiest shopping day of the year as it kickstarts the holiday season. And since this season is special for all the retailers, they want to start it with a big bang, hence the mega sale day.

On this day, due to the start of the Christmas shopping season, there were huge pedestrian and vehicular traffic all over. It used to cause traffic accidents and even certain cases of violence. Hence, people started addressing the day as “Black Friday”. 

How does it work?

Since Black Friday arrives a few weeks before the December holidays, it gives an excellent opportunity to buy holidays gifts beforehand and save money by leveraging the big offers. Plus, it also helps in avoiding the last-minute rush. Some retailers even start their Black Friday sales on Thanksgiving Day itself and run them throughout the weekend. This gives them a four-day window to offer their deals and increase footfalls.

This year Black Friday falls on 26th November and all the brands are prepped up to make it a profitable one. 

Now that you know all about Black Friday, it’s time to start shopping. No more waiting. Hop on to your shopping spree straightaway.
