“Cyber Monday is a sham” – Gadgetell Interview: BFads.net

Now that Black Friday (BF) and Cyber Monday (CM) are recent memories, I chatted up Michael Brim of BFads.net, a site I and many others rely on to provide us all with the very best Black Friday deals.

Cyber Monday numbers in – 15% more spending than 2007

Now that Black Friday and Cyber Monday are behind us, it’s time we enjoy those gadgets that we bought, whether it be a brand new HDTV, gaming system, MP3 player, or computer. Of course for us techie people, we like to see how this year compares with previous years in terms of money spent. With the economy in a slump, experts predicted this shopping season to be down, but Cyber Monday managed to persuade many consumers to open their wallets, punch in their credit card number, and eagerly await their arrival of their new gadget(s).

Statistically speaking, last year on Cyber Monday had bought in $733 million in revenue, and this year bought in a 15% increase – an astonishing $846 million spent, stated ComScore in a report. This came as a relief to many retail stores because sales had dropped by 2% or $12 billion from November 1 to Cyber Monday of this year as compared to last year.
