The name for the day after Thanksgiving. It is named this way because it is supposed to be the day where companies move from deficits to profits for the year, i.e. in a checkbook, going from the red to the black.
Store Executive: We'll have a ton of Black Friday sales to help our company make up for lackluster sales these past 11 months.

Get the black friday mug.The Friday after Thanksgiving when ignorant Americans stand in line for 13 hours and stampede over innocent bystanders in order to get a deal they could've gotten 3 weeks ago on that George Foreman grill if they would have used that fucking coupon. As a retail employee, this is THE WORST day of the year.
