11 Cyber Monday Deals Available Right Now
Retailers offer online discounts on clothes, toys, electronics and jewelry.
Nov. 30, 2009 -- Were you among the throngs mobbing the malls this past weekend in search of holiday sales? Or are you the type to stay home instead, preferring the click clack of your keyboard to the din of Christmas music and ringing cash registers?
If you chose the latter, you're in good company. According to the online tracking firm comScore, holiday shoppers spent $10.57 billion online this month, up 3 percent compared with last year. On Black Friday alone -- the Friday after Thanksgiving -- this year's online sales totaled $595 million, up 11 percent over last year.

Consumers were even shopping online on Thanksgiving day itself, said Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst at New York retail consulting firm NPD Group.
"Consumers were waking up early, going online, getting deals, even before they stuffed the turkey," he said.
If you're just starting your online shopping now, don't worry -- it's not too late to take advantage of holiday deals. Today is, after all, Cyber Monday, when retailers hope Americans returning to work after the long holiday weekend will take at least some time out of their day to surf the Web for online bargains.
