Black label with red and black text reading "Sale, Black Friday" for Black Friday

Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, is one of the biggest shopping events of the year. It marks the beginning of the holiday shopping season in many countries, particularly in the United States, where retailers offer massive discounts, deals, and promotions to attract customers. The term “Black Friday” originated in the 1960s, referring to the day when retailers would go from “in the red” (loss) to “in the black” (profit), thanks to the surge in sales.

Over the years, Black Friday has expanded beyond the U.S. and is now celebrated globally, with online and in-store sales attracting millions of shoppers eager to snag the best bargains. From electronics and appliances to clothing and toys, Black Friday deals cover a wide range of products, making it a highly anticipated event for consumers looking to save money on their holiday shopping.

However, the day has also sparked conversations around consumerism, shopping ethics, and environmental impact. While many enjoy the thrill of getting a great deal, others encourage mindful spending and consideration of the broader effects of overconsumption.
