While there are plenty of online sales going on year-round, there are definitely some more notable days that house the biggest and best sales on the internet. Here is a compilation of the best 10 days to “shop til you drop” in 2022 and 2023.
How To Save Money On The Biggest Online Sales Days
Online shopping has made purchases easy, convenient, and super-efficient. Anyone can shop while sitting on the couch in their sweatpants. Mark your calendars and get ready for crazy good deals, cheap bargains, online shopping events, and sales!
1. SINGLE’S DAY | 11th November 2022
Singles Day began as a ‘spoof’ event celebrated by single Chinese university students in the 1990s. Co-opted by retailers in 2009, this online and offline shopping event soon became one of the biggest online sales days of the year. While it is still growing in popularity in the States, it’s definitely one to keep an eye on. With awesome sales and deals, it’s one you don’t want to miss.
2. BLACK FRIDAY | 26th November 2022
Black Friday, the Friday immediately after Thanksgiving, marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season, and it occurs both online and offline. As the shopping holiday has grown in popularity online, you can find deals starting as early as Thanksgiving day.
3. SOFA SUNDAY | 27th November 2022
Sofa Sunday lands on the Sunday directly following Thanksgiving. It’s one of the best days for shopping, not only because of good prices and lower (to no) shipping costs but because it’s on a Sunday when everyone is already home and online! It’s the perfect day to prop your feet up and hit ‘order’!
4. CYBER MONDAY | 28th November 2022
Cyber Monday is one of the biggest online sales days in the USA, falling on the Monday after Thanksgiving. Since Cyber Monday and Black Friday land on the same weekend, most brands and retailers extend their sales for the whole weekend making it the biggest weekend for shopping in America. Although this extended sale allows customers more time to browse, it’s recommended to hop on early so your favorite items are still in stock.
5. GREEN MONDAY | 13th December 2022
We all know that one person who is late for everything, including buying presents. For online shopping, Green Monday is the busiest day of the pre-Christmas shopping season, and thus one of the best times to grab your last-minute Christmas presents for great value! It’s promoted by online shopping giants like Amazon and eBay, as well as smaller brands and companies. It’s also given the name “Cyber Monday 2” due to its massive growth over the past few years.
6. FREE SHIPPING DAY | 14th December 2022
Free Shipping Day is a mega-online event for all things retail and shopping. It’s a one-day event held in mid-December, and it guarantees free shipping with guaranteed delivery by Christmas Eve. With over 1000 retailers, Free Shipping Day has its own website, which is the best platform to score deals from. It comes in just in time for some last-minute Christmas purchases.
7. BOXING DAY | 26th December 2022
Looking for a way to channel all that holiday spirit and avoid cues at the same time? The answer’s Boxing Day. One of the biggest online sales days every year, Boxing Day Sale’s promotes retailers and stores to give major discounts while working to get rid of post-Christmas stock and keeping the convenience of a good online deal intact.
8. VALENTINE’S DAY | 14th February 2023
All things pink and romantic make a comeback just as February rolls around each year. It also starts the phase of heart eyes at window display selections and some amazingly low prices. This is the perfect time of the year to order those jewelry pieces you’ve had your eye on.
9. MOTHER’S DAY | 14th May 2023
Mother’s Day is all about showing mom how much she means to you. So, what better way to spoil her than with some amazing gifts on her special day? With jewelry, flowers or breakfast in bed, you’ll always put a smile on her face at a great price.
10. AMAZON PRIME DAY | TBD
