BLACK
FRIDAY
Shopper's Guide
The history of Black Friday
B lack Friday marks the unofficial
start of the holiday shopping
season. Come Black Friday,
shoppers strive to get the lowest
prices on gifts for their loved ones.
Much of the Black Friday focus is on
finding the best deals, but it can be
interesting to take a breath and learn
how this phenomenon developed
and how it has evolved over the
years.
“Black Friday”
The term “black Friday” was
originally associated with gold prices
and manipulation on the part of
speculators Jay Gould and James
Fisk. This scandal occurred in
September 1869. Commodity prices
plummeted 50 percent as a result,
and the term “black Friday” was
coined to refer to that drop.
The phrase “black Friday” also
became famous for all the wrong
reasons in 1966. Philadelphia police
used it to reler to the Friday traffic
jams and crowding in downtown
stores from tourists and shoppers
who flooded into the city in advance
of the Army-Navy football game held
the Saturday after Thanksgiving each
year. Bigger crowds and rowdiness
contributed to long hours and
stressful shifts for local police.
Black Friday reinvented
The retail industry started using the
term “Black Friday” in the late 1980s.
Spin doctors turned previously
negative connotations into positive
ones by associating the phrase with
stores turning a profit and moving
accounting ledgers from “red to
black” thanks to big year-end sales.
Retailers and consumers rallied
around low-cost “doorbusters” and
other discounted prices as a way to
drive up year-end revenue.
Interestingly enough, according to
the National Retail Federation, Black
Friday really hasn't been the most
lucrative day for retailers over the
years. In fact, greater profits and
larger crowds are often seen on the
last Saturday proceeding Christmas.
Shopping weekend
evolves
While Black Friday may have been
the catalyst, in recent years shoppers
have made the entire weekend of
Black Friday a lucrative one for
retailers. Many stores now open on
Thanksgiving and extend sales
through the entire weekend. Small
Business Saturday and Sunday
promote patronizing mom-and-pop
stores. Cyber Monday emerged
when online shopping became a
popular way to grab deals, and
marks the close of the opening
weekend of the holiday shopping
season. In 2017, Black Friday
weekend attracted 174 million
shoppers who spent an average of
$335.47, according to the NRF.
