The day after Thanksgiving is Black Friday.
And we come to the second important date of this month, which in recent years has spread to our country, "Black Friday".
There are different theories about the origin of the name, one of the most accepted, and good for your knowledge of English idioms, has to do with the colors. When stores sold so much merchandise after Thanksgiving in the 1980s, their annual revenue went from being “in the red” (loss) to being “in the black” (profit).
In the 1990s, stores began to open a few seconds after midnight. Black Friday has spread all over the world and stores are now offering discounts and deep sales for Black Friday in many countries.
