Just like last year, numerous shopping sites in Pakistan are gearing up to delight online shoppers with exciting Black Friday deals once again. Brace yourself for incredible discounts across various categories as these sites host massive sales events.
What is Black Friday?
Curiosity often swirls around the concept of Black Friday, leaving many to wonder about its origins and why it carries a somewhat somber tone. Originating in the United States, Black Friday falls on the day after Thanksgiving and sets the stage for the upcoming Cyber Monday.
Two prevailing theories attempt to unravel the mystery behind the name “Black Friday.” One suggests that the heavy traffic on the roads the day after Thanksgiving left black markings, giving rise to the term. Another theory links it to old business accounting practices, where losses were marked in red ink and profits in black. Many businesses, especially smaller ones, aimed to turn a profit in black ink after Thanksgiving, marking the start of the holiday shopping season.
Regardless of its etymology, Black Friday stands as one of the most significant shopping days of the year. The day unfolds with a tapestry of enticing deals and sales, spanning from the latest gadgets to everyday essentials. Its popularity has transcended borders, with other countries adopting the concept under different names and interpretations.
Black Friday in Pakistan
In Pakistan, attempts were made by some online shopping sites to replicate the success of Black Friday last year. While there were conflicting reports about the extent of its triumph, many users experienced website crashes due to the overwhelming demand for discounted items. Such glitches are par for the course when venturing into new territory.
It’s a week of savings and excitement, bringing the spirit of Black Friday to shoppers in Pakistan.
