Black Friday

I will be participating in black friday shopping chaos! I don't have any particular products I am interested in and I don't know of any great deals. I participate because the deals may not be huge, but I do receive a discount for the things I would normally buy.

A lot of people, including myself, wonder why the famous shopping day is called Black Friday. The name Black Friday was not considered a good thing at first. It was originally called this because so many went out to shop and it caused many accidents and violence.

I did not see any retailers offering mobile payment methods on Black Friday. Although, many offered online retail sites. Many using websites were able to get offers even before Black Friday and did not have to worry about the product they wanted running out of stock as soon as stores do. I have never seen as many people out on Black Friday as I did this year. It also wasn't quite as brutal. Other shoppers were more pleasant and I think it was because stores were running smoothly. Lines were long but went by quickly and employees were very helpful. This Black Friday was a good experience and went by smoothly.
