Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving. It is generally accepted as the first day of the Christmas Shopping Season. Many stores have big sales that day. Any mall or store will be very crowded.
In my opinion, Christmas Season starts the day after Halloween and I have already done some of my shopping.
What is Black Friday and what happens? Black Friday is in November, the day after Thanksgiving Day that marks the informal beginning of the Christmas shopping period. The majority of major retailers have large marketing sales to begin the vacation shopping season.
Black Friday has become that popular in standard traditionals shops that individuals line up for hours and there is lots of push and shoving and even physical violence. Why would you wait in a long line, be pushed and shoved simply to conserve a couple of bucks when online websites like Amazon have massive Black Friday sales and it's a stress free environment.

Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) is traditionally the busiest shopping day of the year. It is the day when retailers begin to turn a profit, or are "in the black".

It's a crazy shopping craze that the big stores thought up to get people to wake up early, stand in line, rush and fight for mediocre items that they can save a bit of money on. The funny thing is that often these same items can be had for less, on sale, a short time later. The savings on good stuff, such as iPods never amount to much.
And now corporate greed is pushing Black Friday into Thanksgiving dinner time. I feel sorry for the employees that have to give up family time to work. The retailers should be forced to pay them double time.
Black Friday is the day after thanksgiving when stores have HUGE sales. Products are marked down majorly. So much that people will sleep outside to wait for the stores to open.
Now the iPod will definetaly go on sale on black friday. It's a matter of how early you're willing to wake up. You will get huuuuge discounts at some stores if you go during an early bird special. Look at stores black Friday sales in advance to see where is the best (check out best buy, target, walmart, etc.). Try to get there as early as possible because electronics like that go fast!
Good luck!
There are questions like should I buy an iPod 5g or wait for Black Friday
