In the U.S., the Friday following Thanksgiving (this year, November 27th) is considered the start of the Christmas shopping season. It is in part called Black Friday because it is often retailers' single most profitable day, putting them in the 'black' for the fiscal year.

In the U.S., the Friday after Thanksgiving (this year, November 27) is considered the opening of the Christmas shopping season. It is called "Black Friday" partly because it symbolically takes retail stores from being in the red (in debt) to being in the black (making money), but originally because of the extra stress imposed on retail workers, police, etc.
