Black Friday is considered by many shoppers as the best day to go shopping because during this day, lots of shops offer amazingly huge discounts. Even very popular items such as the latest gadgets are offered at very low prices!
Set on the day after Thanksgiving, many shops open much earlier than they regularly do – yet hundreds of shoppers camp out at the door just so they can be the first ones to grab those top items at crazy prices.
For stores, this is also the day when they have the most sales. Online stores have also joined the trend, with great results! In 2012 alone, it is reported that as much as $1.042 billion was spent by shoppers online. You can just imagine the mortar-and-brick stores must have received on that same day!
