Black Friday is the Friday which falls after the US Thanksgiving, and marks the unofficial beginning of the Christmas holiday shopping season. Retailers throw huge sale events for Black Friday, which entice shoppers online and into stores to take advantage of extreme discounts on popular goods such as clothing and electronics.
