Very interesting facts

I don't do the whole black friday thing. Too much craziness. I can't wait for my Royal Albert Hall copy to come in the mail.

Yeah i'm a bit paranoid to try it out because of the thought of crazy people running around and pushing people over just to get an item! I can't wait for RAH to come out either! You're lucky, I have to wait till I can get it in stores. xx

It's when many people rush to shops to get latest bargins, often with sale reduces, and clearances sales. If you thought Christmas rush was bad, Boxing Day is worst, as day after Christmas is worst. I know UK, AU, NZ, and Canada have that bank holiday.

I don't have it yet so i'll get mine when it's released in stores or a couple days after its release. I know it's gonna sell out fast.

I'm pretty sure US doesn't have Boxing Day (correct?), but some people still get crazy around Christmas!

In Britain, Canada, New Zealand and some states of Australia, Boxing Day is primarily known as a shopping holiday, much like the day after Thanksgiving in the United States. It is a time where shops have sales, often with dramatic price decreases. For many merchants, Boxing Day has become the day of the year with the greatest revenue. In the UK in 2009 it was estimated that up to 12 million shoppers appeared at the sales (a rise of almost 20% compared to 2008, although this was also affected by the fact that the VAT would revert to 17.5% from 1 January).

Canada is getting in on the "Black Friday" shopping frenzy.Retailers such as WalMart,Best Buy,and Future Shop to name a few have been advertising all week.Walmart issued a special 3 day Black Friday flyer and opened at 7am.

I think because you have Thanksgiving, you have Black Friday; a day after. In UK, we don't have Thanksgiving, so we have Boxing Day after Christmas so we can make fact because we don't have Thanksgiving, we have Boxing Day instead. Am I making sense?
