What is Black Friday?

Black Friday was originally started in the US and was regarded as the first day of the Christmas shopping season, on which retailers make many special offers. It is the Friday after the US holiday of thanksgiving. Black refers to stores moving from the 'red' to the 'black', back when accounting records were kept by hand and red ick indicated loss, and black profit.

It was in 2013 that Black Friday truly entered the British consciousness. Asda, owned by Walmart, had a black Friday sale in the UK and offered massive savings on a range of goods. The following year other big UK retailers jumped on the black Friday bandwagon, resulting in a sale induced frenzy across the country. And so, black Friday had officially made its way across the Atlantic perpetuated by the massive online stores most notably Amazon.

The footstools are beautifully made. Nice and compact. I bought one a year ago and was so happy with it that I bought another.

Excellent service from Footstools Direct. I ordered samples which came in 2 days. I phoned to make a query which was dealt with in a friendly manner. I ordered cube seats which arrived a week after ordering.

I must've called just as staff were walking in the door, if not not even left thier home yet, but they were still really supportive. We went over what I was after, after my giving a very brief description but they were able to help. When the footstool arrived, I was really impressed as it looks almost identical to the one which needs replacing. At's already in use and my father loved his birthday gift!
