Black Friday Origin
Black Friday is a great time to find amazing deals on the things you love from hotel breaks to clothing. These special deals are often available throughout the weekend until Cyber Monday.
The word "Black Friday" is said to have first came about in 1869 when two men called Jim Fisk and Jay Gould caused the stock market to crash when they upped the price of gold.
Fast forward to the 1950s and 1960s in Philadelphia, USA, people started using the term "Black Friday" to describe the day between Thanksgiving and a large popular football game. This particular day brought in many tourists and shoppers causing frenzy, and the police really struggled to keep everything in check.
However it wasn't until the 1980s that people started to link "Black Friday" with shopping as we know it today. Stores came up with a fresh meaning for the term. This was inspired by how accountants used red ink to mark bad earnings and black ink for good earnings.
Black Friday was then known as the day when stores finally made a profit. Since then Black Friday has turned into a whole season of shopping where you can grab superb deals. It's also inspired other shopping holidays like Cyber Monday.
