Huh? *looks up* So, we've got all these: Black Friday (1869) - a stock market crash in the US
Black Friday (1919) - a riot in Glasgow stemming from industrial unrest
Black Friday (1921) - day on which British dockers' and railwaymen's union leaders announced their decision not to call for strike action against wage reductions for miners
Black Friday (1939) - a day of devastating fires in Australia
Black Friday (1940 film) - science-fiction/horror film starring Boris Karloff, Stanley Ridges and Bela Lugosi.
Black Friday (1945) - Largest air battle over Norway, over Sunnfjord
Black Friday (1978) - a massacre of protesters in Iran
Black Friday (1982) - known in Britain after Argentina invaded the Falkland Islands, sparking the Falklands War
Black Friday - a crackdown on a peaceful protest in the capital city of Maldives, Malé
Black Friday (2005 film) - an unreleased film on the 1993 serial bomb blasts in Mumbai And then I find what you're talking about... Black Friday (shopping) - the day after Thanksgiving Day in the United States, the first shopping day of the Christmas season and one of the busiest shopping days of the year. :miffed: |

haha, I love the way you brought that on, ss. anywho, I didn't dare go shopping, although the main reason is probably that I don't shop anyway,  followed by my being too lazy to go outside, anyway  |

I went to best buy at 4:30 and there was already a line around the store (inside it that is), they had some sweet deals (like WoW and call of duty 2 for $25. I didn't look at any of their comp equipment because I couldn't afford it anyways) Didn't buy anything because i hate lines and people (still wondering why i went but whatever) Then I went to circuit city and noticed that they had jacked up their prices instead of lowering them Evil said he was gonna go shopping but he hasn't said how that turned out yet. |

i've always known and considered the day after thanksgiving to be the busiest shopping day of the year....not one of.
i had to work, usually it would be crazy crazy crazy busy....but it wasn't, which was definitely weird considering it was the weekend after harry potter was released. i'm crediting it towards the snow we got.

I don't think I would trust a computer bought at Wal-Mart. <_< And what's wrong with shopping for gifts after Christmas? |
