Where does Black Friday come from?
The term Black Friday originally comes from the USA and refers to the Friday after Thanksgiving, a holiday celebrated by Americans every year on the fourth Thursday in November. Black Friday marks the start of the Christmas shopping season and kicks off the festive season with great offers. Black Friday is regarded by retailers as one of the biggest shopping days of the year in terms of sales and attracts bargain hunters and customers worldwide with attractive price reductions and discount campaigns. In recent years, Black Week, Black Friday and Cyber Monday have established themselves as popular shopping days in many countries outside the USA.
Black Week and Black Friday: What's the difference?
Black Week is the week in which retailers, shops and online shops offer you daily changing deals and discounts on their products - sometimes even throughout the whole of November. Black Friday is the highlight of the bargain week. On this day you can shop the best offers that are only available once a year!
