What Is Black Friday Sale?
All shopaholics are always very excited about the arrival of the sale. But do you know the history of the Black Friday sale?
‘Black Friday’ is not a term that originated in India, but rather back in the 1960s and ’70s, Surprisingly, this term was used by the police and bus drivers to describe the chaos caused by the influx of shoppers before Thanksgiving weekend. The term originated in Philadelphia. Department stores attempted to re-brand the term as “Big Friday,” but the name “Black Friday” persisted.
While traditionally known for massive crowds and in-store deals, Black Friday shopping has increasingly shifted online, a trend accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. It remains a peak shopping period in the United States and the United Kingdom, and now in India as well.
