I watch on TV people lining up at 6am a few kms down the road from the store, and then when the doors open people getting trampled and I just can't help myself bu to laugh. Only in America.

It's called "Black Friday" because most retailers are in the red as far as yearly sales go. Hopefully on the Friday following Thanksgiving, the retailers will go from being in the "Red" to being on the upside which is in the"Black".....hence the name "Black Friday".
