Today is Cyber Monday, should this be a
National Holiday or something? Or is it
just a day where the employees spend their day at work ordering their Christmas
presents online. Where did this come
from? "Cyber Monday" was created
by marketing companies to encourage people to shop online. The term was coined
by Ellen Davis and Scott Silverman, and made its debut on November 28, 2005 in
a Shop.org press release entitled 'Cyber Monday'. It quickly became one of the biggest online shopping
days of the year.
It never ceases
to amaze me the number of excuses for sales that will get you to spend your
money during this time of year. Black
Friday, Red Saturday and lets not forget Cyber Monday. It won’t be long before every day between
Thanksgiving and Christmas will have a name so you sill run out and take advantage
of all the sales. Americans are just
born shoppers and can’t resist a sale.
Happy Cyber Monday,
enjoy your day starring at your computer or smart phone to buy up all of those
specials.
