When is Cyber Monday 2022?

Cyber Monday was on Monday, November 28, 2022. Depending on the retailer, the deals sometimes begin as early as Black Friday—which is November 25, right after Thanksgiving. Other companies will keep the sales going for a few days afterward.

What Stores Offer the Best Cyber Monday Deals?

You can find incredible Cyber Monday deals at brick-and-mortar stores, such as Best Buy and Walmart, and great online exclusive deals. Online retailers like Amazon and Dell will offer great tech deals as the holiday grows closer, so check back.

While the sales are online, retailers often highlight tech deals in many categories, like TVs, laptops, phones, smart gadgets, wearables, and more. "Retailers often lean into the cyber part of Cyber Monday in more ways than one," says Julie Ramhold, a consumer analyst at Dealnews.com.

"Last year, nearly 30 percent of all the deals we posted on Cyber Monday were for tech items of some sort," she added. In other words, while you can usually find good deals throughout the shopping weekend, Cyber Monday is your best bet to find good tech deals.

What Should I Look Out for This Year?

Wearables like smartwatches and earbuds are your best bet. You’ll also be able to find some of the latest smart home and video game releases at a fraction of the cost. Bookmark this page if you’re still unsure of what you’re looking for or need some inspiration closer to the holidays.
