My junk mailbox is still being swamped with Black Friday offers. Today is Sunday. Why then is it called Black Friday ?

Hi Canary, link here. Your junk mail box is still receiving offers beee s to be had. The fighting that breaks out to get their hands on a bargain! .. The whole idea repulses me. What happened to people??
'Your junk mail box is still receiving offers because they're still to be had'
I'm getting them too canary. .. from the likes of Amazon, Gossard, M & S,Harvey Nicks, Boost juice Bars, Pretty Polly, Debenhams. etc The list is endless. I'm not interested in any of it so it all goes straight into my junk box. Still a nuisance though.

Thanks for that link Elina - but I still think the name's wrong :-)

And as for people, well "greed is great" has been the growing mantra since the Eighties (remember Yuppies), much reinforced recently by the Bankers of course.
I pity what society is becoming Canary.
just think of it as early Boxing Day sales (not that such a thing exists any more). If you see something you want and it's cheaper than normal, go for it.

But beware price cuts. I was reading yesterday how somebody was offering Christmas trees at "50% off". Turns out the original price, that had been halved, was only on a website, and only for a week in August...
Because it's not just one day. An assistant in a very busy Peacocks really made me laugh at the till on Friday - when things came up cheaper then the marked price I said I suppose it's Black Friday? He replied they had discounts right up until Sunday so for them it was going to be a Black weekend!
it's Cyber Monday tomorrow so expect cuts in online shopping sites
