How to make Cyber Monday a steal
Savvy shoppers can make the most of the Web shopping frenzy on Cyber Monday.
Follow these strategies to save:
· Make a gift list complete with recipients’ addresses. That way, you can take advantage of Cyber Monday’s myriad free shipping deals, avoiding baggage fees you might otherwise encounter if you were to pack the present and bring it with you.
· Research products on ConsumerReports.org, then check current product prices at PriceGrabber.com to make sure you’re getting the best product at the best possible price.
· Don’t think you can roll out of bed at 2 p.m. on Monday to get a deal on an item with a rock-bottom price. Some of the best deals on Cyber Monday have an extremely limited supply.
· Use word-of-mouth to line your wallet: Check out bargain message boards like Slickdeals.net and FatWallet.com to discover under-the-radar deals.
