Strong Black Friday Projected for Nevada Retailers

Nevada consumers will  flock to shopping destinations to hunt for Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday deals. The shopping marathon will continue into Small Business Saturday and conclude with the final round of sales on Cyber Monday. The Retail Association of Nevada (RAN) estimates that 1.65 million adults in the Silver State are planning or considering to shop over the four-day Thanksgiving weekend and Cyber Monday, a time when retailers seek to boost sales by offering an abundance of deals. Based on National Retail Federation (NRF) survey data, RAN projects up to $593 million will be spent across Nevada over Thanksgiving weekend and Cyber Monday, a 5.5 percent increase from the estimated $562 million spent a year ago.
