Cyber Monday began as a way for online retailers to compete with traditional brick and mortar stores for a piece of the holiday shopping pie.
Some categories offer better deals on Cyber Monday than Black Friday. Dealnews.com says that apparel, accessory, home, garden, camera, laptop, tablet, and smartphone deals dropped after Black Friday, while TVs saw a minor uptick.
