History lesson for the younger catfights ladies.
Day after Thanksgiving .. BLACK FRIDAY !!
Why it was such a big deal originally. THAT used to be. The official kick off for the Christmas season.
Before Cyber anything ... It was the day after Thanksgiving. That began the shopping, and sales push for Christmas.
That was why it was such a major event. The main Christmas specials and sales just beginning.
Thanksgiving you maybe had a Santa Clause parade.
Lights would begin going up ...... That weekend.
Nothing like the controlled, big business, months long chaos.
It has become now.
