Many retailers call after Christmas sales the 2nd Black Friday because it is an opportunity to draw customers in by offering them deep discounts on similar items you’d see on sale during Black Friday (electronics, video games, toys, etc.).
Look for many sales or clearance deals in store and online. Unlike the real Black Friday, more of the best deals can be found online as retailers use online purchases to clear out inventories regardless of location.
