http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/retailandconsumer/11261024/Black-Friday-The-day-the-UK-went-mad-for-shopping.html"Black Friday promotions have sparked chaos and violence in stores around the country.
Police attended shops after staff, and some members of the public, raised concerns over the volume of people attending the Black Friday sales.
A number of shops opened at midnight, boasting massive discounts on a range of goods, but shoppers described scenes of "carnage" as people scrambled for the best deals."
