Formerly limited to the United States, Black Friday is one of the most exciting shopping events of the year.
Black Friday falls on the day following Thanksgiving Day in the United States - the beginning of the Christmas shopping season.
Traditionally, major retailers open early around this time, some as early as 4 a.m., to kick off their promotional sales.
Apple is no different, with the company reportedly opening its doors to customers between 5AM and 9AM this Friday at 18 locations in North America. At least five outlets will start sales at midnight, according to reports.
In preparation for the shopping event, Apple has posted a teaser on its web site with the message: “Mark your calendar now, and come back to the Apple Online Store the day after Thanksgiving for the special one-day event. You’ll discover amazing iPad, iPod, and Mac gifts for everyone on your list.”
