Cyber Monday is here and the move toward online purchases continues to get stronger. According to reports from the likes of Reuters and the Wall Street Journal Black Friday sales are down this year. They also report that online sales during the weekend were down as well. Given that I didn’t do any shopping this weekend I think I fall into a bigger group of people that is focusing on family time during the Thanksgiving break versus shopping. But now reality is setting in and if you want to get the items you want shipped on time it’s time to get serious about the 2014 Holiday Gift Shopping season.
Back in 2012 we did a post on Cyber Week as well and at that time there was less comfort with buying things online but that has changed. Even with concerns over security the theft of Credit Card data this year has mostly been associated with big brick and mortars. Whether you shop online or off at the end of the day your best bet is to track your credit information with services like LifeLock or similar. Unfortunately computer hacking thieves are bound to increase so making sure you have a service like that or at the very least monitoring your credit cards weekly if not daily is going to be a part of life.
In my opinion the continuing trend toward online sales does make online discounts more of an ongoing thing. The following are some Cyber deals that we have found but given this new trend we will add any Cyber Sales of note for the rest of the 2014 Christmas Shopping season.
