Cyber Monday, which falls on the Monday after Thanksgiving, is the unofficial kickoff to online holiday shopping. As the turkey haze wears off, many web retailers slash prices or offer exclusive coupon codes to entice shoppers.
"Cyber Monday is a huge online shopping day and we really have seen a very, very strong Black Friday here at pricegrabber.com," said Lexie Pucket of the online comparison shopping website. "We are very optimistic about Cyber Monday. It's all about making sure you're not just looking at the big box retailers. Make sure you're checking out those mid-tier retailers"
