Web Surfer's Choice: Cyber Monday or Buy Nothing Day

By now everyone is aware of the Cyber Monday shopping deals which can be found on ShoppersShop.com's Sales and Deals page, on Shop.org's CyberMonday.com page and many other locations including directly on retailer's websites like walmart.com. Last year, eBay was the surprise king of Cyber Monday. Many web users are probably at least checking out the deals and smart organized shoppers are probably making purchases to score deals and save on shipping. Marketing Vox says it was Shop.org that invented Cyber Monday.

For people that detest the idea of days like Black Friday and Cyber Monday there is always Buy Nothing Day. Buy Nothing Day was created to counter Black Friday and Thanksgiving shopping and return the original meaning of Thanksgiving. The day has already past but there is no reason you can't celebrate it on Cyber Monday as well. Buy Nothing Day resources can be found here, here and here. Buy Nothing Day has even expanded into a Buy Nothing Christmas. A day for those who don't want to buy anything has expanded into a season for those who don't want to buy anything.
