History of Black Friday, Cyber Monday & More

While you have a few months to pass the time until the sales start, why not do some reading about the history of these big days? First, check out the history of Black Friday and learn about the birth of Black Friday as a term in Philadelphia.

Next, the history of Cyber Monday is more recent with early years being known for lackluster sales. The history of Amazon's Prime Day is also more contemporary and after a few early rocky years it has become a big sale period each year.

Finally, check out a brief history of GottaDEAL for some interesting historical information about the site. We're proud to be the oldest independent deal and Black Friday site still around.
