According to Honey, a discount-shopping browser extension, last year’s Cyber Monday average savings (per user, per purchase) peaked at 21 percent, while Black Friday savings topped out at 18.5 percent, as reported by Business Insider. The short answer: Cyber Monday has slightly better overall deals. Does Black Friday or Cyber Monday Have Better Sales?
Special online sales from retailers will drop three days later on December 2, 2019. But retailers aren’t going to leave you hanging on Cyber Monday. Despite online pre-sales, in-store markdowns won’t begin until Thanksgiving Day, with special offers rolling out on Friday and some even continuing through the weekend. This year, Black Friday will take place on November 29, 2019, but we bet big brands will start offering sales as early as the beginning of November (Amazon has been known to do a month-long ‘ Countdown to Black Friday’ event). Aside from the sales taking place on different days, the biggest difference between the two is that Black Friday sales can be found in physical stores and online, while Cyber Monday sales are exclusive to the web. Cyber Monday, on the other hand, was created only in 2005 as a marketing term to help online retailers cash in on the post-Turkey Day spending. Somehow the not-so-pleasant term stuck around and became synonymous with the bargain hunting extravaganza we know it to be today. The term “Black Friday” is said to date back to the 1960s when police in Philadelphia used the phrase to reference the bad traffic and uptick in accidents associated with day-after Thanksgiving shopping.
