Black Friday: Shop 'til you drop

Hi there students!
Do you know what Black Friday is? If you don't, click on the following link to listen to Randall, a teacher from the US, telling you about it (click play when you're on his site).
It's interesting!
You can also do the activities he proposes.

Enjoy!

  1. Hi

    I suppose that they need to do some exercise after having the Thanksgiving feste, and how better going shopping!!!!
    They have to run to take the best sale, fighting to other people interested in having it!

    We can compare this situation to our summer's sales or even better to the sale at the beggining of January.
    People get crazy to be the first person in the queue! Not only to have the best sale, but also to say hello to the TV's cameras!

    That makes me think in the mad world that we are living, where the consumer society forgets at all the current crisis situation during those days and it's complaining about it the rest of the year!

  2. Yes, I guess you're right, Ruth. People keep complaining about the current crisis, but then they go and spend lots on days like these. And then there's Christmas shopping...
    It's a bit crazy.
    Thanks for your comment!! ;)
