Though some may not be fans of the fact that Black Friday has steadily become more like Black Thursday with stores opening earlier and earlier on Thanksgiving Day, there is still something undeniable about the rush that comes from scoring huge deals on Black Friday.

Six Worst Things About Working Black Friday

Though there are going to be massive crowds expected at most stores and shopping malls (and you may not necessarily get every item on your list), there are five reasons that Black Friday shopping is and can be really fun.

1. You can get bargain prices on almost everything and save large amounts of money

Whether you're searching for some of the hottest electronics , most in-demand toys, new things for your home, or even some great new looks for your wardrobe, you're likely to find things you're looking for at one sale or another on Black Friday.

2. The hustle and bustle can actually be a bit exciting

Yes sometimes the crowds can get rowdy and impossible, and bigger crowds do mean you may have less of a chance at getting that severely discounted TV if you weren't one of the first people in line, but part of the fun of shopping for the holidays is dealing with the crowds (especially since, according to TIME, 12 percent of shoppers might be drunk when they hit the stores).

3. It can be a family thing

Sure, some go solo when they shop, but the entire family can be a part of the shopping outing. If you have a family that likes to shop, then this is quite possibly one of the better ways for you to bond.

4. You may be able to finish all of your holiday shopping in one day

Depending on how many stores you go to, how many people you buy gifts for, and just how much you plan to spend, you could finish all of your holiday shopping in one day-and then relax in comfort and avoid the stores like the plague for the next month.

5. It's the official start of the holiday shopping season

Not only do you get to start doing your holiday shopping without people thinking you're crazy, but the stores are also finally all decked out for the holidays with great decorations, festive displays, and tons of music to get you in the mood.
