Crazy people get up at some ungodly hour of the morning to fight over the last toy. Or more simply -- shop. Bookkeepers used to use black ink for positive numbers and red ink for negative numbers. The name comes from the fact that many businesses operate 'in the red' all year, making less money than it costs to run the business. On Black Friday, they turn profitable for the year for the first time operating 'in the black.'
