But really, what is Black Friday?
In this article you will learn what it means , what is its history and origin of the name.
Let's start with when exactly is Black Friday?
Black Friday is an American event that began to be celebrated in the 1960s, but the great success exploded in the 1980s, when it was established as an official holiday in America.
It is celebrated on the day after Thanksgiving.
In 2023, it will be held on November 24 and this year too, big shopping is predicted in all sectors. 24 hours of discounts, often even starting on the previous days, and continuing on the days after Black Friday.
But what does Black Friday mean ?
Literally, Black Friday is translated from English as Black Friday .
But why exactly black?
The idea of Black Friday was introduced in 1924 by the American chain of Macy's stores to announce the beginning of Christmas shopping, for which they offered incredible discounts on their products and thus attracted a huge number of customers. This strategy was subsequently implemented by many other stores, but it took many years before this day became a national event.
Hypotheses about the origin of the name are not unequivocal.
Some attribute it to heavy traffic and road congestion, in the 1980s, caused by thousands traveling to the malls to take advantage of deep discounts.
Others attribute it to the fact that during the same period, workers went on fake sick leave to take advantage of the exceptional offers.
According to a BBC news article, Black Friday is associated with the Civil War and slavery and the sale of black people with the reduction of arable land holders / although on further investigation, it is clear that this news is related more rather with legends than with real facts/.
But the most reliable version is associated with the cash registers and accounting books of the stores, which from that day on recorded the increase in sales with a positive sign, i.e. in "black color" (a color they once used to mark wins and losses in red).
