I have always wondered where the term “Black Friday” originated. It seems like a sort of morbid term for the beginning of the Christmas Season. Today, as I saw Black Friday posted everywhere, I decided to find out the answer to that question. So, I am going to share that info with you so you won’t have to go and research it.
There seems to be some debate, but for brevity purposes, basically in today’s world, it is the benchmark when most retailers can change their financial status from in the red to in the black. Yep, it is the day when the registers are filled with cash and they are rollin in the green.
Okay, I admit that maybe I should be out getting great deals on my Christmas gifts, but the fact is, that sounds like too much work.There you have it, the truth is out.
As a matter of fact, I am planning on cashing in on some great deals, but I am going to do that on Cyber Monday. Hey, it is cold outside, the cost of gas is up, and I can just turn on the Christmas toons, grab my cup of java, and cruise the net for all those great deals.
The best part is that I don’t have to lug all that stuff around, worry about my car getting broken into, fight crowds AND they deliver it to my door! Most places even throw in free delivery, it just doesn’t get much better than that.
