    Forget Black Friday and waiting out in the cold. It's all about Cyber Monday.
    Here's a site with a list of deals:

    Holiday Shopping
    Online Retailers Roll Out
    Sales for 'Cyber Monday'

    Consumers are expected to plant themselves at their computers and make online holiday purchases Monday, a day that has become increasingly important to retailers and shoppers alike.

    Known as Cyber Monday, this year's post-Thanksgiving online shopping day looks more promotional than ever, as Web retailers roll out one-day sales for the first time and offers akin to those in retail stores on the Friday after Thanksgiving.

    Many consumers shop in stores over the Thanksgiving weekend and then boot up their computers on Monday to do online research, compare prices and seek out deals. While it isn't the biggest online shopping day of the holiday season, the day brings the first increase in Web holiday spending. Last year, Cyber Monday Web sales hit $608 million, up 26% from the same day in 2005, according to comScore Inc., a Reston, Va., market-research company.

    As a result, more merchants are rolling out new sales tactics this year on the Monday after Thanksgiving. Seventy-two percent of online merchants plan Cyber Monday specials this year, up from 43% two years ago, according to a survey of 116 online merchants by BizRate Research, an E.W. Scripps Co. unit, for Internet-retail trade group Shop.org. One-third of Internet retailers will send out special email campaigns, while 30% will offer specific deals and 29% will offer one-day sales. A quarter of merchants will make free shipping available on all purchases on the day, according to Shop.org and BizRate's survey.

    "This year, promotions on Cyber Monday are extremely competitive as online retailers use an assortment of one-day specials to send shoppers online," said Scott Silverman, executive director of Shop.org, which is based in Washington.

    Footwear merchant Timberland Co., among others, is sending out an email to its customers about its one-day Cyber Monday sale. Recipients of the Timberland email can use a discount code to receive $25 off and free shipping on purchases of $100 or more. Online bags retailer eBags Inc. for the first time is offering a 20% rebate on all purchases made with eBay Inc.'s PayPal online-payment service.

    By all indications, the Web holiday shopping season, spanning November and December, is off to a good start. Web sales through Nov. 18 hit $7.04 billion, up 17% from the same period last year, according to comScore. Overall, comScore forecasts holiday Web holiday sales will reach $29.5 billion this year, a 20% jump from a year ago.

    Cyber monday was a joke last year.

    So much, that most online sites like Tigerdirect and Newegg actually held a Black Friday.
