Black Friday and Cyber Monday are two very popular shopping days in the United States. They happen right after Thanksgiving. Black Friday is on Friday, and Cyber Monday is on the following Monday. Many people wait for these days because they can buy products at very good prices.

In the past, Black Friday sales were only in real stores. People woke up very early, waited in long lines and ran inside the shop when it opened. Many stores, like Walmart or Best Buy, offered big discounts on home products, toys and electronics.

Later, online shopping became more popular. Because of this, Cyber Monday was created. On this day, stores offered special online-only discounts, especially on technology and electronic items.

Today, both days look very similar. People can find Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals both online and in stores. The sales usually start at midnight, and they include many different types of products — clothes, electronics, home items and gifts. You can find great offers without leaving your home and without standing in long queues.

These two days are now some of the best times of the year to save money and buy holiday presents.
