Black Friday 2025 Date, Meaning, and Early Deals: Walmart, Amazon, Target Announce Mega Sale Schedule

The most significant shopping occasion of the year is fast approaching! The day of Black Friday 2025 will fall on November 28, the day after Thanksgiving, and it will usher in enormous price cuts in all stores, online and offline, all over the world. Retailers are preparing for the coming weeks of great and unbelievable promotions on electronics, gadgets, fashion, and much more, from Walmart and Amazon to Target and Best Buy.

🛍 What Date Is Black Friday 2025?

Black Friday is always celebrated the day after Thanksgiving, which in 2025 will be on Thursday, November 27. So, Friday, November 28, will be the official day for this year’s shopping extravaganza — which also marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season.

🏷 What is the Origin of the Name “Black Friday”?

The word was first used in the 1960s in Philadelphia, where police referred to it to indicate huge crowds and traffic jams taking place after Thanksgiving. Little by little, the retailers changed it to a more positive meaning — going from “in the red” (loss) to “in the black” (profit) — as millions of customers stormed stores for price reductions.
