About Black Friday
Black Friday is the biggest shopping day of the year in the United States, occurring the day after Thanksgiving. Retailers offer significant discounts on electronics, clothing, toys, and more. The name "Black Friday" refers to stores moving from "red" (losses) to "black" (profits) due to high sales volumes. Many deals now start on Thanksgiving evening or even earlier in the week.
