Black Friday occurs on Friday because it is historically linked to Thanksgiving, an American holiday celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. The next day, a Friday, traditionally marks the start of the end-of-year shopping season. The day became a key shopping event in the 1960s, when American retailers began offering special promotions to encourage consumers to do their Christmas shopping the day after Thanksgiving. The term “Black Friday” was first used in Philadelphia to describe the massive crowds in the streets and stores that day. Today, although its origin is anchored in American culture, Black Friday has become a global event, retaining its original day, Friday, as a benchmark for launching end-of-year promotions.

How long does Black Friday 2024 last?
Officially, Black Friday lasts a single day, the last Friday in November. However, most brands extend their deals throughout the weekend until Cyber Monday, which falls on the following Monday. Very often, Friday promotions are still available the following Saturday and Sunday. This period is called the Black Friday weekend deals. Cyber Monday will be the last day of the Black Friday Week promotion. Then, you will have to wait for the sales to hope for new discounts from your merchants. The 2025 winter sales will begin in France on Wednesday January 8, 2025 at 8 a.m., except for certain departments such as Moselle, where they will begin on January 2, 2025. These sales will last four weeks and will allow you to benefit from significant reductions on a wide range of products, ideal for equipping your home or renewing your wardrobe after the holidays.
