Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, when retailers slash prices on items in order to create a buying frenzy and shoppers wait in lines that span around malls for cheap laptops, tablets and HDTVs. On Tuesday, Amazon launched its early Black Friday deals store for those looking for discounts on such products as cameras, video games and jewelry.
This all-important day for retailers is their opportunity to take advantage of the beginning of the Christmas shopping season to get themselves "in the black," actually making profits over and above the store's bottom line. One of the best sales during Black Friday 2010 was Apple’s iPod Nano 6G which was released in the previous fall.
As early as today, many people are now preparing their lists of items to buy for themselves and as gifts to their loved ones and certainly are now scouring website by website fishing scoops of the best deals their favorite store could probably offer.
'When it comes to holiday gift shopping, there are three things customers want: low prices, items to be in-stock and ready to ship, and a convenient shopping experience," Amazon spokeswoman Sally Fouts said in a statement. "So in addition to our everyday low prices, customers will find exceptional deals in our Black Fridays deals store starting today all the way through Black Friday."
