on cyber monday? whichever you decide to do, the running consensus is that people are participating in these two days because they are promised sales, sales, and more sales. however, not many are as impressed with the deals they see while shopping. carly edwards shares, ?i find the cyber monday deals really aren?t that awesome. i try to budget a little each month and order presents online as i go.? however, cyber monday was the winner in this debate with 50 percent of readers looking to the internet for their shopping needs. black friday on the other hand, only received 25 percent of the vote. melinda galloway explains, ?i do not shop on black friday. i hate fighting traffic and crowds. i much prefer shopping comfortably on my computer at home because most retailers offer competitive sales online through christmas.? for some, participating in either day isn?t something they have any interest in doing. they prefer to stick to the basics and shop when they can and when they have the time. whichever you decide to do this year, we hope you find something extra special for everyone on your list, deal or no deal. bl ack f r i d a y c y b e r m o n d a y 50% n e i t h e r 25% facebook polls 14 brparents.com | november 2016
