After Thanksgiving people really look forward to Black
Friday. I always thought it had
something to do with Thanksgiving and tried to search for the reasons of its
origin, but all in vain.
It’s just another ‘SALE’ where brands drop their price thus-
attracting consumers from all over the country, even the neighbors from the
north. Originated in the US, it is now become a trend the world over. The day
begins early with people scurrying around to get the ‘BEST’ deal! Often, for things
they don’t need. It’s crazy.
This reminds me of Mumbai, 10 to 15 years ago, before the
advent of the Big Bazars and Dmarts when people from the suburbs would travel
for an hour (or even more) go to Crawford Market and buy loads of stuff. Even
stuff they don’t need – Why? It’s Cheap.
Thinking they may probably need it sometime in the near future. It was like
that place had Black Friday Sale all year round. At the end, it’s st all
craze- people thinking that they are saving money. Well maybe they are or maybe or maybe they aren't .
