🛍 What is Black Friday?
Black Friday marks the start of the Christmas shopping season in the United States. It’s called “Black” because historically, it’s when retailers move from “in the red” (loss) to “in the black” (profit). Major online and in-store retailers offer discounts of up to 70% or more. Popular items include electronics, fashion, toys, and household goods.
⏰ When Do Black Friday Sales Start?
While Black Friday officially starts midnight on November 28, 2025, many stores begin early bird deals in the days leading up to Thanksgiving, and some continue discounts until Cyber Monday (December 1, 2025).
🌍 Black Friday Around the World
While it started in the United States, Black Friday is now a global event. Countries like UK, Canada, Australia, and India have adopted it, often combining it with online mega sales.
