An overabundance of consumerism, Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, where retailers across the country bring out monumental discounts to attract consumers out of bed. Black Friday sounds the established opening of the holiday-buying ruckus. The euphemism Black Friday comes from profit and loss statements where losses have always been described as being "red ink" indicating the damage incurred in the ledger; the opposite in earnings being recorded crossing into the black yielding the name.
For retail chains, Black Friday might register as the strongest sales time of the year and is closely regarded as a meter for what the rest of the Christmas season will bring. After a robust Black Friday Rush, retailers can generally sustain their normal prices and presume that their holiday product lines will move. On the other hand a disappointing Black Friday means they must proceed with dialing in the deals on items to shed enough by Christmas Day.
Retailers depend on just a few sales strategies that have become very solid. Quite a few reduce the prices on only a few notable products, sometimes even letting them out the door at ridiculously low prices, hoping that early-bird shoppers might snag a few regular priced impulse buys for their shopping bags. Of the other gimmicks, the most popular scheme is to mark everything as cheaply as possible and hope to profit through high volume. Regardless, holiday shoppers should expect to make out like bandits this holiday season as retailers lay it on the line. Happy Black Friday and go for it this year with that perfect gift!
