Forget Black Friday -- You're Better Off Shopping on Cyber Monday
It's easy to get caught up in the wave of Black Friday promotional ads, doorbuster deals, and the feeling that if you're not shopping the day after Thanksgiving, then you're missing out on all of the savings.
But don't be fooled; bargain shoppers have more options than ever before. Cyber Monday has grown into an equally good day to find great deals -- and sometimes even better ones. It also throws in the added benefit of being able to shop from the comfort of your own home, or work (we won't tell).
If you think that retailers don't care as much about Cyber Monday and, therefore, don't offer as many good deals on that day, think again. Cyber Monday sales hit $3.4 billion last year, surpassing Black Friday sales of $3.3 billion. That gives retailers lots of incentive to offer deals on Cyber Monday, and it means you should consider ditching the antiquated Black Friday rush and click around for deals instead. Here are a few reasons why.
