Cyber Monday – Big Savings From Your Couch

So you stayed home Friday and recovered from Thanksgiving, avoiding shopping insanity and killer crowds.  You’re pretty happy with yourself that you didn’t give in to the hype.  You didn’t fall for the gimmicks, you can’t be brain washed by advertising, you’re above materialistic instincts.  Life is good.

Only problem is that tiny little voice in your head telling you that you might have missed out on some huge savings.  Especially on very important things like flat screen tvs, digital cameras, Guitar Hero…you know. So maybe a little materialism isn’t so bad. Damn.  Well, starting at midnight tonight you have another chance. And like most good  things in life, it doesn’t require you moving from your couch.

Welcome to Cyber Monday, folks. Big savings, easy shopping, no lines. Check it.  Tipsity lists some of the top leaked deals of 2008.  Everybody from Dell to Sears to Circuit City is getting in on this action so why shouldn’t you? Use technology, waste hours of your day, buy, buy, buy!

We here at monkeywhale would also like to remind you that this is the season of giving.  So after you’ve bought that 40″ flat screen click over to one of your favorite environmental groups and drop them a little cash, too.  You’ll sleep easier that way.  Once you turn off that new tv.
