Black Friday is the biggest day of sales of the entire year, featuring the lowest prices and special deals you’ll find anywhere. The history of Black Friday as a massive shopping day can be traced back over 70 years to the fifties. Police in Philadelphia started referring to the day after Thanksgiving as Black Friday because of all the tourists and shoppers that would flood the area. Today, Black Friday has the far more positive connotation of retailers making it from in the red to in the black – becoming profitable because of all the sales. 🛒
