The last Friday of November has become a key date for businesses around the world, but also for all those who, thinking about Christmas shopping, decide to take advantage of this day to get the same products at a lower price. Although now, in addition to extending its duration, this event has also spread to practically all sectors, stores and services, the products that are sold the most on Black Friday are usually gadgets, those related to technology.
What is Black Friday and when is it?
Although there are many theories about the origin of Black Friday, the one that seems to gain strength dates back to the 50s, in the United States. Coinciding with the first Friday after the celebration of Thanksgiving, the streets of Philadelphia collapsed due to the number of people who arrived in the city, taking advantage of the fact that the next day a football game was played between the army and the navy. Crowds flocked to do their Christmas shopping, taking advantage of the day after Thanksgiving sales.
The law enforcement officers, who had to work intensely throughout the day to try to control the chaos produced in the city, baptized the day as ‘Black Friday’, thus coining a term that Philadelphia merchants began to use thereafter to describe referring to the avalanches of people who flocked to his shops the day after Thanksgiving.
The name of Black Friday became popular later when media such as The New York Times began to use it to refer to this phenomenon until, for a few years, it even reached our country.
And so that you don’t forget when Black Friday is, take note of this fact: Black Friday is always celebrated on the last Friday of November, coinciding with the day after Thanksgiving, and is characterized by having large discounts on different products to the point that they are considered the best deals of the year, which is why it is an occasion that no one wants to miss.
Although it is better that you have this day as a reference since, in recent years, these offers, which originally lasted 24 hours, have been stretched out in time and now usually last around a week, or more.
Is it worth buying on Black Friday?
With the popularity that Black Friday has been acquiring, to which all businesses are already joining, it is common for this question to arise, but the answer is much simpler than you imagine. In general, it does pay to buy on Black Friday, but it is also important to consider what type of products you plan to buy.
You are going to find the best discounts on products that usually have a high price. It is in those purchases that we are going to notice the savings the most.
