    No BLACK FRIDAY Sales at Frontier



    While we had participated in this in past years, this year it is just to much.

    1. It no longer has anything to do with the day of the week called Friday. With the words "Pre, Early, week of" inserted before "Black Friday" It has has turned this whole thing into 4-5 marketing gimmick.

    2. If a item is Reg $99.95 on for $69.95, That may be a decent sale? But why is it considered an even better deal when "Black Friday Sale" Is added.

    3. What exactly is a is a Cyber Monday?!? What is the difference between a Black Friday and a Cyber Monday?

    This year we will running promotions as regular. We will have allot more due to suppliers offering us .......... (will not say that word) promotions.

    We will run these promotions for as long as the items are in stock and will be posting them on this thread.

    This year we will not be using the BF swear word.

    The whole concept was that it accompanies US Thanksgiving, which falls on Thursday. I always disliked how it was imported here, it didn't fit our calendar at all.

    So relieving to read that from a retailer. The only good thing about Black Friday are the youtube videos showing morons fighting over a $100 TV.

    It was called BF because it was the day a lot of retailers went from being in the red ink (deficit) to being in the black ink (profit)

    It’s the biggest shopping day in the USA annually.

    Your suppliers are giving you 'black friday' discounts...Sooooo....what are you calling your sale?

    Pre black friday in Canada makes a lot of sense to me. Where I live a lot of people would drive to Minnesota for good deals. Local retailers realized they were losing out on a lot of holiday spending...so they have specials early to get that cash

    We are not assigning a special title to anything. In the original post point number 2.

    Years ago family BBQs seemed to always have to have a birthday/anniversery ect attached. Or 5 events stacked up to justify. It faded away when the majority decided, cant we just have a BBQ on its own?
