Category: Black Friday Deals

Black Friday Deals exists because of the United States. The day after the American Thanksgiving became known as it for a variety of reasons but the main one is because it seemed to begin the Christmas shopping season after US Thanksgiving. Canada adopted it mainly to curb Canadians from going to the states to shop.

Black Friday Deals sometimes show up in early November as “Black Friday preview” offers. Target and Amazon are two major corporations known to utilize this business model. Still, these mini-Black Friday deals are unlikely to satisfy the truly savvy bargain hunter. For the best deals, you’ve got to wait it out until the day itself.

The fun officially kicks off at midnight on Friday. Rarely, stores will open their doors before midnight—even as early as dinnertime on Thanksgiving. However, this is the exception to the rule. Generally, Black Friday events don’t start until early Friday morning. Black Friday can be nothing short of overwhelming if you hit your local malls or brick-and-mortar stores, which is why a lot of people choose to do their shopping online. Who can blame them? There are countless Black Friday horror stories that will make you want to stay home.
