Good to know
Black Friday is the day after the fourth Thursday of November, which is US Thanksgiving. Because it follows Thanksgiving, the date moves between 23 and 29 November from year to year, and the countdown always aims at the next one.
Many shops worldwide run Black Friday sales on the same day, though each shop decides when its offers start and how long they last, so check the terms of any deal you plan to use. The countdown counts to the start of the day on your device's clock, and you can add a time to match a particular opening hour.
A countdown helps you prepare rather than rush. Make a list of what you need, note the current price of each item and set a spending limit before the day arrives. The full D-Day Counter is one click away in the breadcrumb if you want to follow a second date, such as a sale that starts early.
