Once the “ber” months roll in, expect your wallets and
budgets to suffer a significant dent from the holiday events that will occur in
the last few months of the year. One of the biggest and most anticipated is the
Black Friday sale that takes place after every Thanksgiving. As early as the
first week of November, retailers have started advertising for this day and
shoppers gear themselves for an entire day of crazy deals and an even crazier
crowd.
Black Friday is one of the USA's biggest shopping events of
the year. It is a day when many shops cut their prices on a range of products,
in order to boost profits and officially kick off the festive season. Black

traditionally celebrate American Thanksgiving have embraced the shopping
extravaganza too. Black Friday has a colorful history and it’s not all about
the sales, discounts or amazing deals that are made yearly.
