Sales are expected to increase for 2021.3) Originally a "day of thanks giving" was declared by the US President on the last Thursday of November - either the 4th or 5th. In 1939 the last day was Thursday and retailers worried about the shortened holiday shopping season. In 1941 Congress passed that Thanksgiving would be celebrated the 4th Thursday of November giving shoppers an extra week between it and Christmas.4) Philadelphia coined Black Friday in reference to the smog created by all the traffic & congestion of shoppers. Retailers tried to rebrand as "Big Friday" but that didn't stick.5) The widespread phrase Black Friday didn't catch until 1990's. In which retailers tried to put a positive spin on the "black" bit of the term by saying it was when retailers became profitable, or as the saying goes "went into the black".

Well, a 150-pound person would have to run an average of 29 miles to burn off 2,800 calories. That's a marathon!#4 Or just be the cook.
