Too Early for Black Friday

Wait until November to discuss Black Friday deals.

Is it every too early to start discussing black Friday sales deals?  Yes, it actually is possible to be too early.  The reality is the some clothing stores start to mentally prepare consumers & promote holiday sales events such as Black Friday in October.  In our opinion, that is too early.  The fashion police should probably make it illegal to start an "after Thanksgiving sale" in October.

Now that it is officially November, promoting Black Friday fashion is fair game.

Which apparel & footwear retailers will have the best sales opportunities for consumers this year?

Black Friday Clothing Store Sales Volume 2018

How do we figure out the Black Friday clothing store sales volume for 2018?  It is beyond challenging to figure out with certainty.  

Let's be honest, the clothing stores are not breaking down our door to share the sales data.  Unfortunately, we can't require all of the clothing stores in the United States to provide Apparel Search with their retail sales numbers.  Therefore, we don't have official clothing store reports to provide to you.  However, we have posted news about the overall Black Friday performance.

Tired of Black Friday

Are you tired of Black Friday blog posts and advertisements?

Today is Thanksgiving and we may not be sick of Turkey yet (wait until a week of eating leftovers).  However, some of us may be starting to get tired of seeing advertisements about Black Friday.  Yes, we understand that this is a critical shopping time for the fashion industry.  And, we are definately glad to see that the apparel & footwear industry is participating.  However, it feels as if we are getting bombarded by Black Friday preview advertisements (and blog posts like this one).  At what point does reading about holiday sales get old...

Black Friday Results 2016 Clothing Stores

First of all, we truly hope you have enjoyed your shopping yesterday, but please understand that the selling spree has not yet come to a close.  Black Friday is done, but we still have all weekend to shop.  Even better, Cyber Monday is just around the corner.

Regarding this blog post, let me be clear by saying that the reports on how selling went on Black Friday are still trickling in.  Therefore, I am not going to be giving specific facts (or "estimated" sort of facts) in this particular article.  It is currently the early morning after Black Friday.  So it is not so easy to gather the facts yet.  When finding information on various websites it is important to understand that the reports were written very late last night or extremely early this morning.  I wonder how tired the journalists are when they are writing the articles and calculating the sales numbers...
Black Friday Results
For example of early morning writting, Black Friday Shopping: Tales From the Front Lines on The New York Times appears to have been written at 1:27AM (Sure, I don't know what time zone the author is in).  The article begins, "The unofficial start of the holiday shopping season began on Thursday, when many national retailers opened their doors and offered major sales. It kicked into high gear on Friday, when many more stores entered the fray.".  It goes on to provide stories of shoppers, shopping deals, and a brief history about Black Friday.

It is a frenzy for the media companies to report on the Black Friday sales results and I know you are looking forward to hearing if this was a positive or negative day for the fashion industry.  After we have time to review the data and read thru various sales reports we will be adding information about yesterdays selling in our Black Friday Sales Reports section.

If you are interested in taking a break from shopping, you can find this years information at the Black Friday results 2016 page (again this years information is not yet complete).

Thank you for taking the time to read our fashion retail blog post. We hope that you have found this news about Black Friday results to be informative. If you have comments or questions, please add your thoughts in the discussion area below.

Thanksgiving Fashion

Happy Thanksgiving.

Wear anything you want to wear today.

Thanksgiving Fashion Collection
Be thankful that you have clothing to wear.

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated in the United States.  It was originally celebrated as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States (yes, that is today). 

If you live in Canada, you know that Canadians also celebrate Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday of October in Canada (sorry, your day has already passed).

By the way, don't forget that tomorrow is "Black Friday".  That is a very important day for the fashion industry.  Make sure to tell your family and friends that they should only by clothing, shoes, beauty products, or fashion accessories on Black Friday. Support the garment industry by only buying clothes.
