Black Friday is the day of biggest discounts and sales for virtually all businesses. Initially, it was an idea to boost holiday sales in the United States with very aggressive discounts, as they needed to revive consumption, which was plummeting due to one of the worst financial crises in U.S. history.

It's always celebrated on a Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, and is considered the beginning of the Christmas season. Cyber ​​Monday is celebrated on the Monday following the Black Friday sales , a day originally created to encourage online shopping. Today, it's considered an extension of the Black Friday sales.

Black Friday promotions begin at midnight on Black Friday and end at 11:59 p.m. on the same day. In recent years, there has been a trend toward extending these super discounts, such as a Pre-Black Friday, which consists of offering Black Friday discounts a few hours in advance to VIP customers, or even the well-known Black Week , which starts on Monday with magnificent discounts that culminate on the big day, Black Friday.

Stracci Cards' Black Week begins on Monday, November 25th and ends on Monday, December 2nd with Cyber ​​Monday. Throughout these days, including the Black Friday sales , you can access great deals and discounts on modern metal frames.

The first time the phrase Black Friday was used in Spanish, it was not exactly to announce super prices and special promotions .

The term Black Friday originates from the financial crisis that erupted in the United States on September 24, 1969. It was primarily caused by James Fisk and Jay Gould , two economists working on Wall Street. Their insatiable profit-seeking schemes turned into a speculative macro-plan where gold was the main protagonist.

This event caused the markets to crash and the entire financial system to collapse.

The celebration of Black Friday in Spain crept in only in a subtle and subtle way, mainly with online deals and offers at the beginning of the second decade of the 2000s.

Gradually and with exponential growth, in addition to the necessary push from American companies established in Spain (such as Amazon), Black Friday has been making its way and maturing in our country until today.

Nowadays, it has become a phenomenon, not only for online businesses but also for physical stores that are jumping on the bandwagon of super prices and exclusive promotions , where this sales season becomes essential for their annual sales balance.

In addition to the above version of the financial crisis, there are mainly two more versions about the origin of Black Friday .

One of them tells that its origin dates back to September 19, 1975, when the American tabloid New York Times , baptized that day as “black” due to the traffic chaos that occurred in the city as a result of the post-Thanksgiving discounts.

And the last story or version about the origins of Black Friday is based on the role of retailers or small shops, which during the year were in losses, which they called red numbers, and after Thanksgiving with the arrival of Christmas, profits arrived and the red numbers turned into black numbers.
