Black & Blue Friday is an event for AdVenture Capitalist. This event was made for the season of Black Friday. It started on November 25, 2015 and launched again on November 24, 2016. Other replays started on July 6, August 3, and November 16, 2017, and March 2, 2018. On March 28, 2019, the event got changed to have identical unlocks to Profit-a-Bowl and The Excellent Adventure. On November 28, 2019, 42 unlocks and 56 upgrades were added to the mobile version of the event for a total of 102 unlocks and 61 upgrades.
The event features a ProfitCaster called the "Black & Blue Light Sale". This ProfitCaster is different from many others in that it affects only one randomly chosen investment at a time. It also differs by providing a random purchase discount in addition to the random profit boost to the affected investment. The ProfitCaster is active for a random period of time. The length of the boost can be extended by repeatedly clicking the circular ProfitCaster image of a blue light located to the left of the countdown timer. One example is that the Black & Blue Light Sale lasted for 24 seconds, provided an x24 boost, and provided a 48% discount to the randomly chosen investment while another lasted for 20 seconds, provided an x18 boost, and provided a 56% discount for that randomly chosen investment.

Badges[]
- Although the March 2, 2018 replay required 5 of Everything to earn the Ameri-Badge badge, clicking on the badge in one's list of badges reveals that it was "Earned for buying 6 Door Crashers at the Black Friday Event!" This was perhaps true in previous versions of the event.

Trivia[]
Bold information is only for mobile.
On November 28, 2019, 42 unlocks and 61 upgrades were added to the event for a total of 102 unlocks and 66 upgrades.
It now ends at 170.607 septendecillion instead of 17.504 decillion. The last 2 unlocks (105 and 110 of everything) are very hard to get because you need to make 332.485714 and 333.198575 times the amount of cash as the previous unlock for each unlock respectively, so you need to multiply your cash amount by 332.485714x333.198575 = 110,783.76611266 times the 1.540 sexdecillion needed for 100 of everything to reach 110 of everything at 170.607 septendecillion. There are no more unlocks or upgrades left at that point. Angels are also extremely hard to get at this point as profit is slowing down. (Upgrades end at 3.9 quattourdecillion and this is at 1.540 sexdecillion - 170.607 septendecillion) This makes Black and Blue Friday the hardest event with possible unlocks in the game. (Merry Merger and New You Resolutions have impossible unlocks. For Merry Merger, these are at 880 and 940 of everything ($120.887 quadragintillion). For New You Resolutions, these are 135 and 152 of everything. (ending at 147.743 Octotrigintillion). These are way out of reach without using glitches.
