When Does Cyber Monday Begin in 2023?
Black Friday isn't the only retail holiday in November. Shortly after Black Friday, the deals will begin to morph into Cyber Monday sales. Cyber Monday will officially land on Monday, November 27 this year. That being said, Cyber Monday deals usually start arriving as early as the following Saturday and Sunday after Black Friday. Amazon has already announced that their Cyber Monday sale will begin on Saturday, November 25.
You can also expect the savings to last through the entire week in a phenomenon that has loosely been labeled as 'Cyber Week' by various online retailers. See our guide on some differences between Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals to help you prepare.
Tips for Black Friday Shopping Online
It may seem silly to start planning your Black Friday shopping right now, but doing so can help you save a lot of money when it comes time to actually start making purchases. Here are a few Black Friday tips that you should consider ahead of the event:
- Set a Budget - Keeping track of how much money you can actually spend is important to avoid overspending. When everything is on sale, it can be easy to buy more than you really should just because things are at their lowest price of the year.
- Create a Shopping List - Knowing exactly what you're trying to find discounts on is a great way to avoid making unnecessary purchases. It can also make it easier for you to compare prices between retailers or set price drop alerts ahead of time.
- Compare Prices - Retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart make it really easy to do all of your shopping there. That being said, those retailers don't always have the best price on the items you're looking for. Make sure to compare prices across the web before you buy something.
- Research Before You Buy - If you're making an expensive purchase, make sure you do atleast some research before you purchase that item. This means looking for independent reviews or testimony from trusted sources about those products. You shouldn't necessarily trust Amazon reviews, for example.
- Be Wary of Search Results - Search platforms, such as Google, have a tendency to be flooded with sponsored links in the results. Be careful to avoid cliking on a sponsored ad if you're looking for reviews or searching for specific products by price.
