Black Friday is the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the United States. It is often regarded as the onset of the Christmas shopping season. Retailers across America and indeed the world offer promotional sales to kick off the holiday season. The day’s name originated in Philadelphia, America. It was originally used to describe the heavy and disruptive pedestrian and vehicle traffic which occured on the day following Thanksgiving.
And this year is no exception in the North West of Ireland! Shops across Inishowen and Derry have many offers in store today. One prime example is the Jack and Jones store in the Richmond Centre Derry. They are offering a staggering 25% off all stock today! Many other retailers throughout the area are doing similar. Amazon has huge Black Friday offers online.
So it may just be a good time to kick off the Christmas shopping and start ticking some items off the Santa list! There’s some real bargains to be had out there!
