History of Black friday in 2023
Leading brands, internet merchants, and other businesses begin to release Black friday bargains as Thanksgiving approaches. However, where and how did the phrase "Black Friday" come from?
The origins of the moniker "Black Friday" are the subject of numerous stories. Some people think that Black friday earned its moniker because shops started offering huge discounts to customers instead of losing money. Others thought that today's positive deals, which were noted in black and losses in red, would result in big profits.
The Philadelphia Police, who first used the word in the 1950s to highlight the mayhem that occurs the day following Thanksgiving, are credited with creating the moniker Black Friday.
Every year, American consumers eagerly anticipate Black friday, a significant cultural and commercial occasion. In addition to symbolizing the hunt for discounts, Black friday also heralds the start of the holiday season and the custom of christmas shopping.
