Cyber Monday

Monday, 1 December 2014

Today's the day!

The Thanksgiving weekend of shopping finishes up with Cyber Monday.

The National Retail Federation says it expects an overall drop for shoppers searching for deals over the holiday weekend.

It says part of that decline could be because some retailers pushed lower prices as early as Halloween.

But Lake Land College Economics instructor Brian Lynch says there's still hope for Cyber Monday because it appeals to lots of people.

Lynch reminds shoppers that anytime you shop online, you expose yourself to possible security weaknesses, so make sure you visit secure sites.

But you may not need to rush to your keyboard; some stores like Target and Amazon plan to dub this week "cyber WEEK" so the deals aren't over just yet.
