Re: Black Friday

I am so glad I got in on that K-Mart Fuji/TY CD-R deal a few weeks back. Nothing like getting two 50 packs for $8. Bought 800 blanks. Thing is I didn't really need them but at that price I just couldn't resist.

My guess is that every country that celebrates Thanksgiving also has Black Friday!

Re: Black Friday

The day after Thanksgiving is the busiest shopping day of the year in the US.

Hence Black Friday

Re: Black Friday

Black Friday is the biggest sale even of the year, bigger than Christmas and New Year Sale. Thanks Giving is always on Thursday, and all shopping are closed on Thursday, then they reopen on Friday at a very early time, 6 AM in the morning and normally they have customers waiting in line or sleep outside of the store the night before waiting for the store to open so they can get their hand on the best but limitted on hand stock item. Crazy thing like this only happens in America

I've seen an episode of Mr Bean long time ago and it was the same in the UK (sleeping in a line waiting for store to open for a sale)

Thank God that we here in Egypt don't have sales like this , our sales are completely different : they raise the prices 100% and make a 50% sale

I remember reading that the day after Christmas, the first day the stores are open is actually the busiest day in the stores with the after Christmas discounts, returns/exchanges, and the hunt for batteries/accessories. Black Friday has the most sale items and gets the most PR.

No not really, after Xmas, everything else sux except the anniversary sale. After Xmas sales are mostly Xmas accessories and holiday cards. I worked in retail store and nothing can beat black friday, may be anniversary sale, but anniversary sale does not happen at every retailers at once.

I think one big thing that will pull people into the stores will be the larger LCD's on sale, it is getting to be heated market now, and I can see some good price cuts by the big chains to pull people in their stores. It gets more peoples' attention to have a 42" LCD at 50-75% off on the front page of the circular.

Re: Black Friday

Anyone know the real reason it's called, "Black Friday?"

Traditionally, that is the day most retailers start earning money for the year. Hence, they go into the "black" that day. Up until Black Friday, they are in the "red." The rest of the year is all gravy.
