We share top tips on how to get the best deals this Cyber Monday
IT’S Cyber Monday – the busiest online shopping day of the year.
Following hot on the heels of discount frenzy Black Friday, cyber stores have to work even harder to keep us spending.
It is your chance to bag more big bargains.
Unlike Black Friday, which is all about reductions on selected items, Cyber Monday brings lower prices across the store.
We have teamed up with Anita Naik, lifestyle editor at , to reveal how to get the best deals.
- Do your research: Cyber Monday is a great day for discounts across homeware, electrical and appliances such as phones, TVs and white goods. Before committing to a buy, check customer reviews to make sure you are getting the right product for you.
- Time it right: Last year, web traffic peaked between 7am and 9am. Get up early to beat the crowds.
- Check the site is safe: Look for the green padlock symbol and pay via PayPal or credit card for extra security. Try to avoid debit cards linked to your bank account.
- Factor in delivery costs: Compare the cost of the item and delivery charge to get an overall price before you decide what and where to buy.
- Double up on codes and cards: Use a credit card that offers rewards and try to “stack” voucher codes for extra savings.
- Do you need it? No matter how big the discount, if you don’t need it, it’s a spend and not a save.
