Crazy Cyber Monday Stats

I am not a huge Cyber-Monday shopper. Actually, I'm not much of a shopper. My girl friend tries to help me, but even she knows it is a lost cause. I am horrible, and would much rather be doing other things.

Yet, when I came across some stats of Cyber Monday I couldn't really believe it.

I thought Black Friday might be the craziest shopping day of all, but these Cyber Monday stats are ridiculous.

According to an article on fortune.com, about 122 million people are expected to shop on Cyber Monday this year. About 99.1 million people went out on Thanksgiving-Black Friday, so many people are still searching for the deals.

According to another article on pfsweb.com, about $3.19 billion were sold in digital sales in 2015. That is a lot of money. If you follow the link, it will also break down the sales by gender, age and where you are shopping from.

About 51 percent of people do Cyber Monday shopping from their homes, while about 48 percent of them find their deals at work. On the flip, about 52 percent of the money made on Cyber Monday comes from people shopping at work!

Wow, that is a lot of people shopping at work. I guess when there is a deal to be made, somebody has to snatch it up.

I would be that we could expect to see many of these deals online start to grow outside of just the original Cyber Monday, just like Black Friday has moved into Thanksgiving, and even into the beginning of the month.
