Black Friday, as once a term describes the extent of traffic congestion in Philadelphia after Thanksgiving, today associated exclusively with unprecedented Closeouts before Christmas. Huge crowds in a blanket or even in tents gather early in the morning, if not the night before the doors of some hypermarkets and branded stores in hopes have time to buy gifts for the holidays for a very reasonable price, or buy something myself with great discount.

Needless to say, what fights are sometimes carried out of the queue in the street and inside the store. Almost every year in the US news reports appear to compres- sion, legs and bruised "victims of the Christmas shopping."
