“Black Friday” kicks off the Christmas shopping season every year. It’s called “black” Friday because it’s the day that retailers hope to be “in the black,” meaning they hope to make a profit.
Many stores open very early in the morning to offer savvy shoppers some of the best deals of the year on everything from electronic goods, to clothing, to jewelry and children’s toys.
So, if you are in the market for a new computer or other item, be sure to check for Black Friday sales online and buy the Nov. 27 Lansing State Journal newspaper, which will be packed with advertisements.
Be sure to read the “fine print” to see if sales are only offered during specific times or days.
