Asda ditches the Black Friday hell it helped create
Like Halloween and Father’s Day, Britain has accepted another US tradition into its heart: Black Friday. By accepted, we mean coming to terms with fighting off a marauding gang of supermarket bargain hunters to get their hands on a £99 Blaupunkt TV. This year’s shopping event is only a couple of weeks away, but already some big-name retailers are withdrawing their support. Despite helping to introduce the concept in the UK two years ago, BBC News reports that supermarket chain Asda won’t be holding Black Friday sales come November 27th.
