It is an annual event that encourages shoppers to support local and independent businesses. However, it is of particular importance for small business owners themselves.

While it’s important to support small businesses, it’s equally important for small business owners to ensure they have everything they need to keep their conscious, community-driven operations running.

Can I shop Black Friday deals online?

Yes! Most stores and major retailers are continuing to host traditional Black Friday in-store sales but also suitable discounts for online buyers. According to the National Retail Federation, Black Friday has surpassed Cyber ​​Monday as the busiest day on the calendarar for online shopping since 2019.

Why is it called “Black Friday”?

The earliest use of “Black Friday” as we know it dates back to the 1950s or 1960s, with “black” referring to dreaded traffic jams caused by crowded shoppers in downtown retail stores as well as understaffed salespeople. Retailers tried to rename the day “Big Friday” to mark a day of family fun and shopping. The rebranding didn’t stick, but the positive connotation did. Retail companies benefit from higher sales and consumers benefit from corresponding discounts when shopping for Christmas.

Although Black Friday is a great day for retailers, it still reflects the dark side of American consumerism, as many will remember violent crowds competing for limited goods. However, with the rise of internet shopping, retailers and online retailers have continued to experience record-breaking sales in recent years without the sick mob mentality that ushered in the holiday season.

When is Cyber ​​Monday 2024?

This year marks the online shopping holiday Cyber ​​Monday Monday, December 2nd2024.

Which is better, Black Friday or Cyber ​​Monday?

The short answer is: it depends. Some retailers approach Black Friday and Cyber ​​Monday differently, offering discounts on different brands and products in the days after Thanksgiving, sometimes at different prices.

Traditionally, Cyber ​​Monday offers retailers the opportunity to offer larger discounts on products already on sale. However, consumers should be careful: waiting for Cyber ​​Monday runs the risk of products or certain sizes or models being sold out.

Conversely, some stores do not differentiate between their Black Friday and Cyber ​​Monday sales.
