How Many Days Until Cyber Monday?

Cyber Monday is the Monday after Thanksgiving, and it has become the biggest online shopping day of the year. The term was coined in 2005 by the National Retail Federation, based on the observation that online sales spiked on the Monday after Thanksgiving when people returned to work and used their faster office internet connections to shop.

Some are, some arent. Electronics and tech accessories tend to have genuinly good discounts on Cyber Monday. Clothing deals are usually comparable to what you can find during other seasonal sales. The best strategy is to track prices before the event using tools like CamelCamelCamel or Honey, so you know whether a "50% off" deal is real or inflated.

Historicaly, the best Cyber Monday deals are on electronics and tech accessories: laptops, headphones, smart home devices and streaming subscriptions. Software subscriptions often offer their biggest discounts on Cyber Monday. Travel deals (flights and hotels) have also become a Cyber Monday staple. Clothing and fashion deals are decent but usually comparable to what you can find during regular seasonal sales throughout the year.

El Buen Fin in Mexico and Click Frenzy in Australia serve similar purposes.
