3 ways to celebrate
Make Your List Early
Write down exactly what you want to buy and set a budget before the deals go live. Sticking to your list keeps impulse buys in check.
Hunt Deals Safely
Stick to trusted websites and watch for spam, scams, and spoofed lookalike sites. After shopping, scan your card and bank statements for anything unfamiliar.
Shop Small Online
Many local and small-business websites join Cyber Monday with online-only discounts and free shipping. Check their social feeds for special codes.
