Ready, Set... Black Friday!

Black Friday, coming right on the heels of Thanksgiving, is that one major opportunity towards the end of the year to complete your Christmas gifts list. Thanksgiving is the holiday to historically mark the culmination of harvest season and the coming together of friends and family. Traditionally, after the heartwarming reunion with your loved ones and having partaken of the delectable roast turkey, bread stuffing, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie, you are fortified enough to take part in the fierce and hectic event that is Black Friday.

 

Did You Know?

The more popular connotation of “Black Friday” was adopted from the phrase coined by policemen in Philadelphia in the 1860s. It was an apt description for the pandemonium that followed when an exodus of tourists from the suburbs flocked to the city for some serious holiday shopping, and during particular years, to watch the Army-Navy football games on Saturday. The surge in volume of people caused heavy traffic, and a spike in accidents and crime. It was taxing on local law enforcement, as they had to work longer shifts than normal just to deal with these situations.

Black Friday sirens

During the 1980s, Black Friday began to be recognized as a symbol for the rise in retail sales when merchants instituted the red-to-black campaign. They adapted the “black” to signify recovery from financial losses, which was termed “in the red”. This was noted in their accounting books after Thanksgiving. They encouraged this initiative and boosted their profits by holding store-wide to nationwide sales with huge discounts to motivate shoppers to buy.

Black is the new Red

Since then, Black Friday has become a public tradition, one of the last few chances to avail of great deals for consumers, and for merchants to offer their goods at very attractive prices.
