While being a long standing tradition in the United States, Black Friday steadily found its way into European culture in recent years. “The Day After Thanksgiving” has been used as a bridge day by many American families to get the gift shopping done a good time ahead of the holidays, taking advantage of promotional sales offered by most major retailers. After collectively getting bloated with turkey on Thanksgiving, everyone grabs their kids (or parents respectively) and heads for the nearest shopping mall on the next day.
The day’s name originated in Philadelphia, where it originally was used to describe the heavy and disruptive pedestrian and vehicle traffic that would occur on the day after Thanksgiving due to people returning home after spending the holiday with their parents. With the increase of retailers using the day to promote sales an alternative “economic” explanation for the term “Black Friday” was made: Retailers traditionally operated at a financial loss (“in the red”) from January through November, and “Black Friday” indicates the point at which retailers begin to turn a profit, or “in the black”.
Although Thanksgiving may not be that relevant in Germany – how could it be if its roots date back to English traditions dating from the Protestant Reformation – the tradition of buying quality clothing, shoes and accessories for low prices is alive and well all over the world.
