Black Friday was started in the 1960s to begin the mad dash which is holiday shopping. “Black” pertains to stores switching from the “red” to the “black” back when accounting records were taken down by hand. However the name Black Friday also holds historical value by describing the financial crisis of 1869, which was a stock market crash due to gold spectators who failed trying to corner the gold market and resulted in the collapse of the stock market.

Black Friday is a great time to get holiday shopping done for millions of people. Just remember to have fun and stay safe.
