What Products Should You Buy On Cyber Monday 2017?

Personally, I want to get the best bang for my buck on Cyber Monday. I’m looking for gifts for the whole family – my wife and two kids – and maybe a few things for myself. After all, this is the best time to buy!

I take care of my holiday shopping list early. There’s no last minute running around. Instead of stressing, I get to relax with my family and enjoy the holidays.

How do I make the most of Cyber Monday? By having a plan. I break my shopping down into categories and find the best deals I can.

This year, I want to share my plan with you. Hopefully it will help you find all the things you’re looking for.

Check out this list of what to buy on Cyber Monday 2017.

1. Laptops

Laptops are some of the best deals you can find on Cyber Monday. According to Deal News, there are more laptop discounts on Cyber Monday than there are on Black Friday.

These deals aren’t just the best in terms of prices, but the quality of laptops offered on Cyber Monday tend to be better as well. These discounts tend to focus on mid-tier machines – not the entry-level ‘bargain’ technology that many retailers offer on Black Friday.

Get the right laptop on Cyber Monday. Students can use a simple computer for studying – something like the Acer i3-7100. Walmart has them on sale for only $299. If you need a MacBook, Forbes can tell you the best places to get Cyber Monday deals on Apple products.

Last Minute Tips for Cyber Monday 2017

Research & Organize. Research the product categories you’re interested in – clothing, shoes, phones, whatever it is you want most. Save links to these products and places where you see deals. Keep this information organized in a text document or spreadsheet.
Focus In. If a lot of the items you want are in high demand, you may only be able to buy a few. Decide which are most important to you. Shop for those first.
Start Early. Wake up early on Monday and get to clicking. Check when each site’s Cyber Monday deals begin and end. Some websites start their cyber savings as early as Black Friday.
Stay Updated. Some stores don’t announce all of their deals until the last minute. Track the retailer’s website and social media feeds. Many Cyber Monday discounts continue into the week, so keep checking!

We all want to save time and money shopping for the holidays. Cyber Monday is when we can get the best deals from the comfort of our own home.
