Did you know the origin of Black Friday?

The term "Black Friday" originated in Philadelphia in the 1960s. Originally, it was used to describe the traffic chaos and crowds filling the streets after Thanksgiving, as it coincided with the start of the Christmas shopping season.

The most common explanation is that retailers adopted the term to signify the point in the year when they move from being in the red (losses) to being in the black (profits), thanks to the massive increase in sales during this period. Over the years, Black Friday became a significant event in the United States, featuring discounts and special deals that attract crowds of shoppers seeking great opportunities.

Over time, Black Friday has expanded beyond the United States and is now a major commercial event in many countries worldwide, marking the start of the holiday shopping season with significant discounts and promotions across a wide range of products.
