Every store I ever visited sent me an email today. Or so it feels.
I don’t even have to make a list of places I may want to unsubscribe from.
The thing is that the average “European” doesn’t have a bull’s notion about Thanksgiving or Black Friday. If anything, Black Friday sounds akin to Bloody Sunday.
We never had Black Friday in Europe up until about 2 years ago. It’s just marketing and no apologies.

For most retailers these days Black Friday isn’t even black anymore. The black doesn’t come in now until days (if not weeks) later. Black Christmas Eve?

It’s the name given to a violent conflict between authorities and the people that happened on a Sunday, very generally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloody_Sunday

I’m actually ashamed I did not understand the significance of Thanksgiving until only recently.
