    Chaos in the streets. Anarchy signs everywhere.

    Complete pandemonium.  This is what Black Friday sales feel like.

    First coined by the 1960s Philadelphia police, according to writer Ben Zimmer, this day kicks off the holiday shopping season.

    However, as the greed of corporations increase, sales that happen before Black Friday are becoming increasingly popular. A holiday about thankfulness is being forgotten in a sea of self-indulgent capitalism.

    The sale on the day after Thanksgiving have been around for years, but the craze of sales before Black Friday stated two years ago with Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and Kohl’s all opening their doors Thursday evening, according to “Does ‘Black Friday’ Start Too Early This Year?” by Tierney Sneed.

    Thanksgiving is a day where people are supposed to be thankful for what they have, and to be doubly thankful for family. By taking people away from family, the ideals of Thanksgiving are being stolen.

    With Adobe Digital Index predicting $1.6 billion in sales on Black Friday, according to Market Watch, the sales scheme seems to be selling.

    While this is a projected value, it goes to show that Americans are forgetting the importance of family values and concentrating on worldly goods.
