Shoppers who missed> out on the best of Black Friday deals this weekend have another shot at stellar sales on Monday.
In previous years, Cyber Monday was more gimmick than goldmine. But for 2009, retailers appear to be taking the day s discounts more seriously, says Randy Allen, an associate dean for Cornell University's Johnson Graduate School of Management. In part, that s just the tough economy. But it s also retailers finally catching up with a trend: According to Deloitte LLP, 25% of consumers plan to do the bulk of their shopping online this year. With numbers like that, retailers feel they have to discount now to get online shoppers attention. You re starting to see real deals there, she says. According to the National Retail Federation, 87% of retailers plan to have a special promotion Monday, up from 84% last year and 72% in 2007.
