Two decades back, the tradition of Thanksgiving weekend shopping began, named Black Friday, a day people can buy countless goodies at dirt cheap prices.
On Black Friday, which is observed a day after the Thanksgiving Thursday, major retailers give promotional offers to kick-start the holiday shopping season.
Retailers including Wal-Mart, Macy's, Best Buy, Cabela's, Toys "R" Us, Dick's Sporting Goods, Kmart and Kohl's, among others offer a wide range of discounts on their products, including apparels, shoes, electronics, groceries, beverages, and so on.
2014 Black Friday was no different as the shoppers flooded these outlets while many were camping outside the shops long before they were open, to get hold of their desired items at a cheap rate.
Check the above slideshow to see the Black Friday shopping rush in NewYork, New Jersey, Chicago and other US states.
