    black friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving day. It is called "Black Friday" because it either makes or breaks the stores. Meaning: On that day, they will usually get all the money they will make for the year. It is also the buisiest shopping day of the year and there are MAJOR sales!

    I'll be going to a few smaller scale stores, ones that I doubt will be too busy. I won't be going to the malls or Walmart though, no thanks. Have fun though!

    Haha, I think so. Only here, Thanksgiving is much earlier, and they just call it "Midnight Madness". It only happens at the mall though, and I think they switched it to "Moonlight Madness" because it used to mean the stores were open until 12, but not it's only 11 I think. I'm not sure if we have THAT many sales, but who knows. Hopefully I'll get some Christmas presents - I just wish it was a little later on, like in December, because I like going to it with my friend, but I just can't stand waiting so long to give the gifts to people.
    Funny how they have it on the same day, even though we don't have the Thanksgiving, nor have I ever heard it being called "black friday".

    I am going to try to get out of here at 5 a.m. There's a few things I need from Sears and then I'm heading to Value City and then the mall. I'm sure the mall will be insane, but it's a yearly tradition. I get out and shop all morning while hubby sleeps.
