u wuldnt understend.

I know, I'm not American.

SO YOU'RE A COMMUNIST!
Hahaha jk, you should never come here.

I might plan on moving soon, American candy is delicious.

Yeah, it is pretty good... but when you're walking on the street and someone offers you candy, don't get into the van, I've made that mistake 3 times already -.-

Unlucky, and the internet has taught me for this day.
Where I am at the moment, I seen a American candy stall, with like tropical skittles and all that shit.

I'd like to bathe in Skittles.

My brother got those, and I got some Hershey's white chocolate, it was like being in motherfucking heaven, and I got some root beer.

Yes, I live in the UK, and American sweets aren't sold in gas stations and grocery stores, etc. that was like there for a day.

It's the day after thanksgiving where stores have ridiculous sales, causing mobs and riots and profits.

So is it only in North America and Canada?

As far as I know. Capitalism: every holiday a sale, every wal-mart a riot.

Because it isn't in Britain or the surrounding areas.

So is it only in North America?

Black Friday is a day in America*, like the dude said, where certain items and merchandise go on ridiculous sales. This happens at every major chain store.

The reason is because these companies take advantage of the first "Official" day of holiday shopping by giving the shopper bargains, it's another way for our companies in the states to make more money. Not by dropping prices so drastically (i.e. a 250G Xbox 360 + 5 Top Selling Games for $150) but so that shoppers will buy in bulk.

I work at Gamestop, in a mall. We literally had a tidal wave of people storm through at Midnight, when we opened. Some people sprinted so they could get their hands on our sales. We had sales like the 360, a 320G PS3 + Black Ops II, Borderlands II and Dishonored for 199. 19-fucking-9! (I bought one.)

And yes, only in North America. Not sure about Canada.

So are you an American?

Unproudly. Yes.

People on fj are the probably the only Americans that are awesome and not swag fags.
No offence other Americans.

Yeah. I know. Like I said, I work at a mall. Everywhere I look. Stupid kids with hats that are merely sitting on their heads, and pants that only reach their upper legs. Oh, and we have a guy I've nicknamed "Ugh" who looks like a Jersey Shorefag, with his hair like a gelled mop and everything. He looks like The Situation mated with Kitchen Cleaning Supplies.

And they all go by the phrase YOLO?

I'm not sure. I'm usually to fueled by rage and my hearing goes short. But I'm sure that YOLO is a really bad black god they pray to.
