What are the secret drivers behind the year's biggest shopping day, and why is there so much fighting?

Black Friday has become an inescapable part of life, with a deal notification even popping up as a type this... (thanks Grammarly I don't need 50% off)

But it wasn't always this way.

In the early 1950's Philadelphia after Thanksgiving, a flood of traffic would swell for the local football game and downtown shopping. Cops called the gridlock "Black Friday" as a derogatory term. It was slowly adopted by shops and morphed into the retail phenomenon we know today.

We pull the curtains back on this crazy day:

  • Psychological levers that get us to spend
  • Case studies of different fights and drama
  • How shopping impacts our emotions
  • What are we really seeking from a deal

Learn about why our rational thinking gets turned off as shops manipulate our minds to get us into a buying frenzy and how it can turn violent. And whose fault is it?
