Cyber Monday

is over, but there are still some last-minute deals available on products across all categories. Some deals will likely continue throughout the week, but the biggest discounts ended tonight. Cyber Monday is mainly an online-shopping event, and it's historically delivered some of the season's lowest prices. 
Cyber Monday is a particularly good time to shop for tech, smart home, and gift cards, but you can also find good prices on kitchen, style, and personal care items. It can be hard to find popular items in stock, though, which means acting quickly is key to getting a good deal.

When is Cyber Monday?
Cyber Monday falls on the Monday after Black Friday every year. In 2021, the shopping event began on November 29.
As a continuation of sorts to Black Friday, Cyber Monday gives shoppers another opportunity to save on tech, home goods, clothing, and more that you might've missed while digesting Thanksgiving dinner. Unlike


Black Friday

, though, Cyber Monday is entirely online.
What time does Cyber Monday start?
Cyber Monday officially began at 12 a.m. ET on November 29. That said, the event carried over many deals from Black Friday, so some discounts were already available. Likewise, some deals will likely remain active throughout the week.
What is Cyber Monday?
Cyber Monday began as the online version of Black Friday, where online retailers offered big discounts to match their brick-and-mortar counterparts. Now, Cyber Monday is one of the biggest shopping days of the year, often surpassing even Black Friday in terms of revenue and sales. 
Previously, the main distinction between Black Friday and Cyber Monday was that Black Friday focused on in-store sales and Cyber Monday on online sales. But as shopping habits have increasingly favored the internet, shoppers can look forward to a very online-focused Cyber Monday and Black Friday. 
Cyber Monday offers a great opportunity to save on all your holiday gifts. 
How long do Cyber Monday sales last? 
Though Cyber Monday sales once took place on Monday only, we've seen them extend to longer and longer durations, with a handful lasting through the rest of the week. 
However, the best discounts we see are in limited supply and expire soon after they become available.
What's better, Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
With more and more buyers shopping online, the debate over which shopping holiday wins, is practically moot. Both events will be held predominantly online, and more than a few deals overlap. In fact, many Black Friday deals become Cyber Monday deals when the dates change. 
If possible, buyers should shop on both holidays. We've seen different products receive better discounts on each day, and the deals that each retailer offers will vary. 
Generally speaking, consumers shopping for big-ticket items, such as laptops, TVs, and kitchen appliances, can expect more opportunities on Black Friday. Shoppers looking for last year's models, smart home gadgets, digital subscriptions, and gift cards will likely find more luck during Cyber Monday.
What should I buy during Cyber Monday?
If a retailer offers Black Friday deals, it's a near guarantee that it will offer Cyber Monday deals, too. Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart are some noteworthy retailers that we know will participate in the shopping event, with deals across many product categories.
We also see massive discounts on some of our favorite direct-to-consumer products during Cyber Monday, such as retail startups like Leesa and Brooklinen. For some online stores, Cyber Monday (or Cyber Week) will be one of the few times of the year when their products see major markdowns.
Will there be Cyber Monday shipping delays?
Shipping delays and shopping holidays are inextricably linked, so there's always a risk of late deliveries.
To help you avoid the shipping crunch and get your stuff sooner, several retailers, including Walmart, Target, and Best Buy, offer in-store pickup and contactless curbside pickup. This means shoppers can grab their orders at a nearby location, provided that the retailer has it in stock. 
Best Cyber Monday deals we saw last year
Last year, we saw a lot of great sales on Cyber Monday ranging from sitewide discounts to specific products. Everything from home and kitchen, to subscription services were on sale during last year's annual savings event.
Here are a few of the best Cyber Monday deals from 2020.  
How we select the best Cyber Monday deals
We only choose products that meet our high standard of coverage, and that we've either used ourselves or researched carefully.
We compare the prices among top retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart and only include the deals that are better than all others offered (not including promotional discounts that come from using certain credit cards).
All deals are at least 20% off, with the occasional exception for products that are rarely discounted or provide an outsized value.
