You have heard the terms Black Friday and Cyber Monday over and over and over again the past week or so.
But what are they?
Well, Black Friday is the term given for decades for the day after Thanksgiving in the United States. This day is a huge shopping day, the unofficial kickoff to the Christmas shopping season, when retailers started to make a profit for the year.
Retail stores and shopping malls are jammed with shoppers hunt for bargains for their Christmas presents. The mall parking lots are jammed, stores have lines of people waiting to get inside, and people are generally miserable because they lost out on the deal that they saw in the local newspaper only to find out that ‘quantities are limited’ applied to the 50% discount sticker; what a waste of time, effort, stress and gas (for the car)
Cyber Monday, on the other hand is the name given to the Monday after U.S. Thanksgiving when internet shopping increases, because those who did not find what they wanted on Black Friday and the weekend finally realize how much easier, less stressful and beneficial it is to do their Christmas shopping on the internet.
So, with that in mind, we have gone looking for the best deals we could find on the Internet for home renovation, maintenance and energy conservation retailers. Some of these have a coupon code you need to enter for free shipping and / or extra discount. Others are simply great deals.
Oh, start your Internet shopping now. If you do in fact wait until Cyber Monday like everyone else does, instead of long lines at retail stores in the mall you might find that the internet retailers’ servers are a bit slow with everyone else trying to also buy some of their Christmas presents at the same time as you. But, at least you didn’t waste gas in your car going to and from the mall.
Think of it as our way of giving you an early Christmas present.
Here is our list of the best deals on the web. All you need to do is to click on the links below that you want to learn more about and possibly purchase. Enjoy!
