Black Friday

November 28, 2025

Hello everyone,

Happy Black Friday! Wait, is that even a greeting?

Black Friday originated in Philadelphia in the 1960s, when police used the term to describe the chaotic pedestrian and vehicle traffic occurring the day after Thanksgiving.

Later, retailers reinterpreted the name to signify the crucial point in the year when their accounting moved from being “in the red” (operating at a loss) to “in the black” (turning a profit), officially launching the holiday shopping season. Today, it has evolved from a single American sales day into a global cultural tradition.
