SLANGMAN FRIDAYS: Shopping Slang

In the US, the day after Thanksgiving holiday is known as the first day of traditional Christmas shopping.  So, from Slangman David Burke: American slang for shopping!

Even the shopping expression, "BLACK FRIDAY" may not be understood by visitors to the U.S. But it's the most popular day of the year (the last Friday in November) when prices are at their lowest and you can find "BLOWOUT SALES" all over. But the best way to make sure you don't get "RIPPED OFF" is to start by understanding the SHOPPING SLANG in this next SLANGMAN video!
