Black Friday

Black Friday is the day right after Thanksgiving when prices are half off and everyone shops. Black Friday was created so the stock market would shoot up and it obviously makes really good sales and is good for the market. The president at the time, Ulysses Grant, wanted Black Friday to be directed to gold sales and rise. I think Black Friday is a good idea because it does help boost the market and it's beneficial for everyone because everything is cheaper. I personally love it because I get to go to my favorite store and buy anything for half off. Most places I shop at are super expensive so if I get a $60 shirt for $30 I'm honestly happy. Or a $100 jeans for $50 I'm happy. Yes I kind of do believe it is a commercialism monster because some people take Black Friday way too seriously and it has actually costed some people lives. A few dollars off materialistic things are not worth a life! It is ridiculous and saddening that people have actually gotten killed. That is the worst way to do honestly. I do take part in Black Friday but if I don't get something I want it's not that big of a deal I only do it for fun. This picture from Black Friday is crazy.
