People are reflected in a mirror as they shop during Black Friday sales in NY November 29, 2013.

Unfortunately, that’s all we know so far about Amazon’s Black Friday event! Last year’s spending surpassed the previous year’s by 17%, research from MBNA has revealed, with United Kingdom shoppers spending a total of £810m on Black Friday and £720m on Cyber Monday.
