Sometimes leads to the trampling/stomping of Wal-mart employees

The Friday after Thanksgiving in which the American retail industry booms as the Holiday shopping season "officially" starts. It is marked by extended store hours, and consumer competetition in order to take advantage of the numerous discounts and specials.
The name comes from the fact that many businesses make gains for their yearly profits, putting it in the "black" ink as opposed to the red ink, which they often operate on in the months preceding Black Friday.
Another theory or application of the name is that in a sense it is the exact opposite of Black Tuesday, in that the retail economy booms as opposed to collapsing as it did in 1929 on Black Tuesday.
Have you seen the sales at Acme Inc. for Black Friday? We need to go to bed early on Thanksgiving so we can get up in time to beat the crowds there.

The craziest day for people in the retail industry. Traditionally stores have a huge sale the day after Thanksgiving where they open their stores at five in the f*****g morning, and people line up outside the store doors to the end of the country for some sort of savings. People have actually been killed on Black Friday... how f****d up is that? It's just another one of the embarrassments of the human race.
Consumers have a love/hate relationship with it, people, who work in stores hate it, and corporate owners of store franchises love it because their yearly profits go up. Black Friday got it's name because the stores profits go from being in the "red zone" to the "black zone." This day and the Christmas season (month of December) is used to make up for the 11 months of lost sales.
Executive: "Sir our Black Friday sales for Walmart are at an all time high this year."
Walmart President: "Good, good. Yes I see those morons on the television killing each other to buy their Tickle-Me-Elmo dolls. Our plans to run out small business and rule the world are beginning to succeed. Gentlemen! Let us raise our glasses in a toast to evil."

The day designated for partyin, partyin (yeah) and having fun, fun, fun, fun. Usually started at 7am with cereal and an internal melodic monologue weighing the benefits of front and back seat riding. Car rides with other make-up wearing, mole covering adolescent friends regularly occur. Black Friday also signifies tomorrow is saturday and sunday comes after...wards. Gotta get down on Friday. The name originates from the accomplished singer/songwriter Rebecca Black.
