I was really hoping for some good deals today and maybe it's me but this year cyber monday seems like a cyberflop:confused3. The AG sale is lame and I don't see any good video game sales or hoodie sales for my boys. I'm bummed:(
 
I did great! Got a new tv for a great price, toys 25% off plus free shipping, zazzle ornament 50% off plus free shipping, something from Kohls using my Kohls cash, 20% off plus free shipping and free shipping at ThinkGeek too.

I look forward to cyber Monday as a day to get free shipping at all of the websites where I only want to buy one or two things and would never qualify for free shipping otherwise. Any percentages off are a bonus.
 
I thought the AG sale was really bad too - like the outfits for the dolls were just the shirts etc... The one thing I would have gotten (an Christmas Outfit for my daughter) was sold old when I logged on at 6:00AM - so I didnt get anything... oh well
 
I haven't seen anything that I couldn't get for the same price with a coupon code any day of the week. Not impressed at all.
 

The only place I've seen with what I consider "good" deals was Aeropostale. Everywhere else was meh.
 
The one cute AG outfit I was looking at was sold out already at 1:15 CST, 15 minutes into the sale. :(

I haven't been very impressed with Amazon today either. I did AWESOME last Wednesday on there and was hoping to do some more shopping today. If you are looking for a Kindle Fire though they are only $129, which is crazy because they were $200 just a few months ago.

Vera Bradley has some good sales going on. Half off hipsters and duffels.

Kohls has earn $15 Kohls Cash for every $50 spent, which is the best you will do there. Plus 20% off.

Lands End has 30% off everything and free shipping over $50 (although if you Google I am sure you can find a free shipping on anything code).
 
I was hoping for free shipping with no minumum order at Disneystore.com and bath and body works. Seems like they had free shipping in the past on Cyber Monday?
 
I did good at Eddie Bauer - I had been needing something in a tall size and today I got 40% off and free shipping - so that was a win win for me:cool1:

The other item I would like to find today would be Ugg slippers and then my girls would be all done!

Otherwise I wasn't looking for much, but keeping my ideas open.

Was it the blue sweater and silver skirt? I wanted that outfit too and it was sold out at 6:30am when I checked..totally bummed.

I did so well last Wednesday and Friday I guess those were the better deals. I was able to redeem $45 in Kohls cash this morning with free shipping and 20% off (although they take the %off AFTER the kohls cash is redeemed). I"ll keep checking amazon but this year their cybermonday is really lame. Meh.

No, I will agree with you and call it a flop too.

My laptop died on me two weeks ago :badpc: and I was hoping to find a really great deal on a new one. Yeah, not so much. There are sales but not such super hot prices that I'm willing to buy one today. Maybe closer to Christmas? :confused3

I'm bummed too. :worried:
 
I have seen nothing to excite me with regards to Cyber Monday. Complete flop.

Does zazzle just give you free shipping, or do you have to have a code?
 
I am so utterly disappointed. It's quite clear this morning that my kids are getting about half of what they got last year because nothing is budging. I guess it's time reality hits them like it has for us the last few years. The prices on what they would like are insane and I feel like there isn't any help in the way of sales.
 
So far my only Cyber Monday purchase -- just finished Yoyo shopping with coupon TOY40 and decided to go with the Lego Creator Log Cabin as it was 1 of the few I could find that was truly a deal and has great reviews. :thumbsup2 It seemed the City Police Station with the coupon came out to the normal Amazon price. :confused: I added a dog toy Treatstik and Training Treats with coupon WAG to to get the free shipping and my total for all 3 was less than $35! :goodvibes
 
The deal on the Kindle Fire is a good one.

From Amazon: >>>>Cyber Monday Savings
Today only, Kindle Fire is available for only $129 ($30 off). Enter promotional code FIREDEAL at checkout.

Offer valid from 12:01AM PST through 11:59PM PST on 11/26/12, or while supplies last. Limit one discount per customer. >>>>>>>>>>>>
 
I've never viewed "Cyber Monday" as more than a marketing gimmick - there's that word again LOL.

I'm really getting kind of tired of sales anyway. It seems like every 4 hours now I have to go clear my Inbox of 20-some email proclaiming that it is literally my LAST CHANCE to save!!!!! Right, there's going to be a buttload of sales now through the end of December and then there is going to be a buttload of Clearance sales. Today really isn't much different than any other day.

I have to get everything we've bought organized and then check my lists to see what I have left to buy and how much money is left in the budget. I don't think I'll be buying much else until next weekend.
