Black Friday is the biggest sales event of the year. My dad, my brother and I went to Walmart in Midtown Thanksgiving night. The store was packed! My brother and I were trying to stay out of the way of the crowd of people near the electronics. I said to my brother, “I just wish all electronics would just disappear away for while. People need to calm down when it’s Black Friday.”

 My brother agreed with me. Why are electronics so popular? As my family went down the food aisles, it was a ghost town. Why don’t they put food on sale during Black Friday as well?
