After Thanksgiving Sales

Hope you're having a super Thanksgiving, with lots of family, friends and food! Thanksgiving day is followed by.... shopping!

"Black Friday" is the day after American Thanksgiving and also the unofficial start of the traditional Christmas shopping season in the U.S. This day is also one of the BUSIEST shopping days of the year.

According to wikipedia.org, "Black Friday" was originally so named because of the heavy traffic on that day, although most contemporary uses of the term refer instead to it as the beginning of the period in which retailers are in the black (i.e., turning a profit).
