It's the day (or close to it) a lot of the "living paycheck to paycheck" crowd get paid. So typical for there to be a slight spending spike as they fritter money away on useless crap.

If they get paid on the first, wouldn't that mean they spend the least at the end of the month?
Maybe that's too rational.

Even if they did get paid on the first (I've never heard of that, it's usually 25th or later) they'd still get paid on the Friday and not the weekend.

Ehh. Depends on the product. Sometimes they'll jew the frick out of you on the website and hide the delivery and shipping fee into the price of the item.
$200 for a xmas tree in warehouse, $300 with free shipping on the site for the same item.
They are tricksy people.
