About Cyber Monday 2023

Cyber Monday is a marketing term referring to the first Monday after the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States. It's a 24-hour online shopping event that was originally created by businesses to encourage people to do their shopping online and is now often regarded as an extension of the Black Friday sales.

Why it is called Cyber Monday?

In late November 2005, The New York Times reported: "The name Cyber Monday grew out of the observation that millions of otherwise productive working Americans, fresh off a Thanksgiving weekend of window shopping, were returning to high-speed Internet connections at work Monday and buying what they liked.

Cyber Monday is not a public holiday. Businesses have normal opening hours. Cyber Monday is one of the busiest online shopping days of the year.

Cyber Monday is popular because it's a day when online retailers offer discounts and deals. The timing of Cyber Monday is also great for shoppers looking to start their holiday shopping for Hanukkah, Christmas, and other holidays.
