Alright, this may be a little late to comment on, but Black Friday remains the shopping day for the Christmas season, but you don't have to fight anyone for your daughter's baby doll that poops and cries. Black Friday has turned into a online competition. Pay Pal increased six-fold from Black Friday from 2010 to 2011 for online purchases along with global online payment companies growing four-fold over the same period. With more and more people getting comfortable with online shopping, retailers are focusing the big marketing sales to the computer. This still didn't stop midnight shoppers for black Friday as shopping in stores jumped from 3.5% to 9.9%. Blame it on inflation or recent economic growth, but Black Friday continues to grow.
