Why is called Black Friday?
There have been a few theories regarding why this biggest shopping event is termed Black Friday. Given the different theories, we cannot say for sure why. However, we’d share these theories for you to think over. According to an article on Thebalance.com, "It was originally called Black Friday because so many people went out to shop that it caused traffic accidents and sometimes even violence. The Philadelphia Police Department coined the phrase to describe the mayhem surrounding the congestion of pedestrian and auto traffic in the downtown area."
Wonderopolis.org shares a different theory: “Black Friday is the day when retailers finally begin to turn a profit for the year. In accounting terms, operating at a loss (losing money) is called being “in the red" because accountants traditionally used red ink to show negative amounts (losses). Positive amounts (profits) were usually shown in black ink. Thus, being “in the black" is a good thing because it means stores are operating at a profit (making money).”Who is Hosting Black Friday Sales in Tanzania?
