What are the secret drivers behind the year's biggest shopping day, and why is there so much fighting?
Black Friday has become an inescapable part of life, with a deal notification even popping up as a type this... (thanks Grammarly I don't need 50% off)
But it wasn't always this way.
In the early 1950's Philadelphia after Thanksgiving, a flood of traffic would swell for the local football game and downtown shopping. Cops called the gridlock "Black Friday" as a derogatory term. It was slowly adopted by shops and morphed into the retail phenomenon we know today.
We pull the curtains back on this crazy day:
Psychological levers that get us to spend
Case studies of different fights and drama
How shopping impacts our emotions
What are we really seeking from a deal
Learn about why our rational thinking gets turned off as shops manipulate our minds to get us into a buying frenzy and how it can turn violent. And whose fault is it?
