Black Friday in the United States
FRIDAY
於片
Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving Day and the
Friday before Cyber Monday in the United States. It is a busy
BLACK
shopping day and is a holiday in some states.
Black Friday is not a federal holiday, but is a public holiday in some
states. Many organizations also close for the Thanksgiving
weekend. Many people have a day off work or choose to take a day
from their quota of annual leave on Black Friday. Some people use
this to make trips to see family members or friends who live in other
areas or to go on vacation. Others use it to start shopping for the Christmas season.
Shopping for Christmas presents is also popular on Black Friday. Many stores have special offers and lower
their prices on some goods, such as toys.
Public transit systems may run on their normal schedule or may have
changes. Some stores extend their opening hours on Black Friday. There
can also be congestion on roads to popular shopping destinations.
Black Friday is one of the busiest shopping days in the USA. There are two
popular theories as to why the day after Thanksgiving Day is called Black
Friday. One theory is that the wheels of vehicles in heavy traffic on the day
after Thanksgiving Day left many black markings on the road surface,
leading to the term Black Friday.
The other theory is that the term Black Friday comes from an old way of recording business accounts.
Losses were recorded in red ink and profits in black ink. Many businesses, particularly small businesses,
started making profits prior to Christmas. Many hoped to start showing a profit, marked in black ink, on the
day after Thanksgiving Day.
