The origin of Cyber Monday
The term "Cyber Monday" was coined in 2005 by the National Retail Federation's online division, Shop.org. Retailers had noticed that online sales jumped on the Monday after Thanksgiving, when people returned to work and shopped from their office computers.
Since then, Cyber Monday has grown into one of the biggest online shopping days of the year in the United States.
Getting the best deals
Many Cyber Monday deals go live the night before, and the best ones can sell out quickly. Add items to your wish list ahead of time, sign up for retailer newsletters to get early access, and compare prices with the Black Friday deals before you check out.
