Frequently Asked Questions
Why it is called Black Friday?
In financial terms, the word 'black' refers to economic stress, while 'red' is associated with financial success. On the 24th of September 1869, financier Jay Gould and businessman James Fisk attempted to corner New York's gold market. This resulted in the market's collapse, and the day was nicknamed Black Friday.
Why Black Friday is celebrated?
The term 'Black Friday' began gaining traction in the early 1960s, thanks to the Philadelphia police force. They used it to describe the vast groups of shoppers who descended on the city during the last weekend of November to start their Christmas shopping. Businesses and marketers have since monopolised this, offering significant discounts to encourage more shoppers.
What happens on Black Friday?
Shops and online stores offer great discounts on certain products, including toys, electronics and clothes. Some retailers start early, and others overrun, incorporating a Cyber Monday sale.
Is there a black Friday in Ireland?
Yes, many shops throughout Northern Ireland and the Republic Of Ireland celebrate Black Friday. Some also celebrate Cyber Monday.
This depends on what you wish to buy and where. Some shops have been known to hike their prices earlier in the year, only to drop them for a Black Friday event. However, this strategy doesn't apply to all retailers.
