Your article is really interesting! I didn’t know, or didn’t remember, how the term Black Friday began. I always thought it was about the retailers making a profit and turning from red to black. I also didn’t realize that so many states in the U.S. actually consider Black Friday an official holiday! My state isn’t one of them but my boss actually does give us the day off. I personally have never gone out to shop on Black Friday but wait until Cyber Monday so I can shop online and not deal with the crowds. But many, many people make it a tradition to get out there. Thanks for giving all of us the real scoop!
My pleasure, Brenda! 🙂
Like you, I too thought it was about turning the books red to black. It was really fun doing research about Black Friday and Cyber Monday. I am very glad it is now such an interesting piece for everyone.
Getting the day off on Black Friday is sweet! 🙂
