The color black was picked by savvy marketers back in the 1950s who decided to turn the annual chaos associated with post-Thanksgiving Army-Navy football game riots into an excuse to move retailers out of the red and into the black.
A decade later, the folks who coined the phrase Black Friday decided it would be more encouraging to change the term to Big Friday, but it didn’t stick, so the color black remains a symbol of the premier shopping day associated with the Christmas holiday. What made it so special? Bargains could be snagged by spree shoppers on missions to take advantage of both the long weekend and the excuse to turn the day into an event.
When did the travel industry adopt Black Friday sales?
Longer ago than you imagine. From airlines to resorts, attractions, and popular vacation spots, why wouldn’t it make sense to get on the bandwagon, offering equally delicious deals on travel? In Belize, one resort’s Black Friday deal is sweeter than others because guests won’t check into an ordinary property. Instead, they’ll luxuriate on a tropical island at Coco Plum Island Resort where you won’t care about mark-downs or sales!
Sound idyllic? It will be—and for more reasons than just escaping winter weather. This Caribbean resort is home to a popular All-Inclusive Snorkel Package that treats every guest to their fill of Belize Barrier Reef activities, and this current Black Friday discount is both relaxing and filled with perks—especially for folks who can’t get enough snorkel time.
