Black Friday Begins

Across the country, Americans are going shopping for Black Friday.

Across the country, consumers are already out in full force on the first day of the holiday shopping season. Some stores opened late Thanksgiving Day for the earliest deals, while others will be offering some of the biggest discounts today. Black Friday has lost some traffic to online sales, but large crowds are still expected as retailers are hoping today will be the start of a strong holiday season. An estimated 137 million Americans are expected to do some shopping this holiday weekend.
