Black Friday, as we know it today, began in the United States as a day of big discounts, celebrated on the last Friday of November. Over time, the event gained worldwide popularity, marking the start of the Christmas shopping season.
Although it seems like a recent tradition, the expression "Black Friday" has older origins, associated with economic crises, such as the stock market crash of 1929, when merchants launched promotions to boost consumption during the recession.
Since then, Black Friday has evolved, becoming the biggest shopping event of the year and attracting millions of consumers looking for great deals.
