You probably know about Single's Day (Nov.11th) in China, when people stay up very late at night to shop online in order to save money. We usually enjoy(我们自己)during shopping on that day. Well, the US has something similar called Black Friday.
Black Friday is the Friday after the(第四)Thursday in November. This year will fall on Nov. 29th. It's the start of the holiday shopping season. Most people don't have to go to work that day and they have one day(休息). So people start to(考虑)buying what kind of presents for their families and friends.
While Single's Day is usually for online shopping, a lot of shopping on Black Friday is like a (战争) at actual shops. Shoppers look for deals they like, such as televisions, computers and(音乐的)instruments. These things have high prices, but on this day, there are only a few available at the very low sale prices. After(比较)the prices of things among the different shops, they decide which to buy in the end.
Some people are(担心的)that they'll miss the things they want to buy. They will wait in line for hours before (午夜)when stores finally open. People camp out in the cold and rush in as soon as the doors open. Sometimes people get hurt when people go(穿过)the doors.
But lately a few stores have been starting sales even earlier. Stores do this to hopefully get more shoppers and stay ahead of the competition.
