The best Cyber Monday deals could be your last chance of the year to bag a bargain find across a broad range of categories. It's go-time right now, actually, as we've seen stores launch their sales - or rebrand their Black Friday ones, this Sunday.
After covering Cyber Monday for well over a decade and seeing the event change over the years, I'm confident in saying that most of the best deals will be live already. Every year, Cyber Monday and Black Friday merge ever closer into one gargantuan deals event, and we've seen prices hold steady since Friday on most of our favorite picks.
Stock levels are your enemy now, though, as stores only want to sell so many units at discounted prices, and many shoppers will finally start heading to the checkout on items they've had in their baskets for a few days.

Cyber Monday 2024 takes place on Monday, December 2. That's the first Monday following Black Friday. Any brand new deals that aren't just carrying over from Black Friday usually begin around midnight PT in the US (or 3 a.m. ET), and most will end 24 hours later.
Very much so. Several top retailers are already offering some sales, even if they're not necessarily pegged to Cyber Monday specifically. So, if you fancy getting some early seasonal shopping out of the way, now's the time. We've listed the best ones earlier in this article.
It will greatly vary by retailer. We do sometimes see a fair few deals hang in there a little longer into the week. Some stores even roll sales into 'Cyber Week deals' but sometimes these aren't as good as the prices they featured over the Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend.
If you have time to get your shopping done by the end of Cyber Monday proper, we'd very much advise you do so in order to avoid any nasty price increases at checkout in the days following.
One reason deals might last a little longer this year is that Thanksgiving was much later in November than last year, and given ever-savvier shoppers have got used to holding out for the Black Friday event. This means retailers will have been pinning a lot on it, and Cyber Monday as time's running out for the year's busiest buying period and they of course have sales targets to meet.
The 'bigger' element often refers to many online retailers making more money on the Monday sale. This could, in large part, be due to people hedging their bets and finally buying items they've had in their baskets since Black Friday, just making extra sure another retailer hasn't dropped the price further.
Years ago, Cyber Monday was indeed more popular online than Black Friday, as the latter was seen as more of an in-store event.
Nowadays, though, online shopping is king on Black Friday. Google Trends also shows that more people are Googling Black Friday-related terms than Cyber Monday ones by a huge margin.
On most categories, we'd say they are not — they're often the same. Many retailers plan on running the same deals from Black Friday through Cyber Monday, but only while stocks last — this is especially true in tech. Clothing deals are a different story, though, as many retailers use Cyber Monday to majorly discount last season's lines, so whatever they're still trying to clear out can get further markdowns from their Black Friday price.
One other reason Cyber Monday deals could improve on their Black Friday ones is down to individual brands. If they're a little concerned they didn't shift enough stock on Friday, they could decide to unleash something for Cyber Monday instead, knowing people might be waiting for something better to drop.
