The day after Thanksgiving has become America’s wildest shopping day.Closed all day on Thursday,chain stores all across the nation open early on Friday. Some stores open at 12:00 Friday morning, while others open at 4 a. m. (26) From Friday to the day before Christmas, this is the most crowded shopping season when businesses make as much as 25 percent of their annual revenue.
People camp out in front of stores a day or two before the doors open on Friday. These people patiently wait in line to get products that are discounted 50 percent or more. (27)They bring games to play, watch TV and order lots of pizza, and meet interesting people. And, most important of all. they save big bucks! The catch, of course, is that only a very small number of products are available at the largest discounts. Regardless, each store has plenty of other items that are reduced from 10 to 50 percent -- saving shoppers from $10 to $400 per item -- to attract Americans to shop.
Not all Americans appreciate such crazy shopping. Reverend William Graham wants to rename Black Friday. He would like to call it Remember Jesus Friday. tie thinks people should start the season with the right attitude. (28) He wants to make it a Season of Giving. According to his explanation, it doesn’t mean giving IPods, DVDs and flat screen TVs. It means giving your back, your mind, and your hands, Help an old lady clean up her house. Visit sick people in the hospital or in nursing homes, Give blood to the Red Cross, Celebrate Christmas by remembering Jesus and forgetting Santa Claus,
