Back then many Christmas or Thanksgiving Day parades were sponsored by department stores which used it as a big advertising push before the holidays shopping. Consequently Friday after Thanksgiving has become the one when Christmas shopping starts. But why is it called Black, one may ask?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/files\/pics\/black-friday\/giphy-2.gif\" alt=\"Macy's annual thanksgiving parade to welcome Santa Claus\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason is supposed to be\u2026 in inks color. The deal is, retailers used to operate at financial loss through the whole year with an exception of holidays season. Starting from the day following Thanksgiving they were making huge profit &#8211; till the end of holidays. While filling out financial records they would use red inks per negative amounts and black inks per positive ones. Consequently, starting from Black Friday financial record stopped being all red and would go back to black.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It hasn\u2019t been long before Black Friday spread from the US to Canada and the UK and then became the world-famous event. Retailers all over the world use this day for special discounts, advertising campaigns, make up hypes to attract customers\u2019 attention.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/files\/pics\/black-friday\/giphy-4.gif\" alt=\"Woman buying a toaster and clothes with discounts during Black Friday\" width=\"400\" height=\"275\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many retailers even open their doors in the middle of the night as people can stand in queues for hours!
