DO YOU KNOW: THE ORIGIN OF BLACK FRIDAY?

The moniker "Black Friday" was given to the Friday after Thanksgiving because, historically speaking, it was the day on which merchants, who operated at a loss for most of the year, finally began showing a profit. Shopping on the day after Thanksgiving is heavily promoted by retailers. For many consumers, it marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season.

For movie buffs, Black Friday is also the name of a 1940 horror movie starring Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi and Stanley Ridges.
