Ten Tips For Cyber Monday Shopping

November 30, 2008 By Sherry Tingley

Cyber Monday is the Monday after Thanksgiving. It is well known to internet shoppers and designed to kick off the beginning of the online Christmas holiday shopping season and offer deeply discounted items for sale on the Internet.

It is much easier to shop for Cyber Monday deals rather than fighting the crowds for Black Friday. More than 80% of the online retailers are planning to offer discounts on Cyber Monday, December 1, 2008.

Some interesting Cyber Monday shopping statistics

  • 2007 Cyber Monday Hit Online Retail Spending Record of $733 Million
  • 2007 Cyber Monday Online Sales Were Up 21 Percent From the Year Before
  • 2007 Cyber Monday represented an 84-percent jump from the average daily online spending totals during the preceding four weeks.

Tip #1 – From Google – Check your budgets, and consider increasing them. You’re likely to see increased traffic and you won’t want to exhaust your budget early on a day when there are so many potential buyers.

Tip #2 – From Google – Give customers peace of mind about shipping times. One of the most stressful parts of online holiday shipping is not knowing if a present will make it in time. Be up front about delivery dates and let customers know ordering deadlines for gifts to make it in time for the holidays.

Tip #3 – From Google – Promote any special offerings in your ad text. If you have a holiday special that differentiates you from the competition, be sure to showcase it in your ad.

Tip #4 – Offer Free Shipping. Customers will be doing searches for items with Free Shipping.

Tip #5 – Check over 500 website deals at once at Cybermonday.com. They report on deals from KMart, Macys, Sears, Banana Republic, Walmart, Cabelas, J.C. Penney and hundreds of shopping sites.

Tip #6- Up To 50% off on Your Business Checks, Order Direct at Coolchecks.net

Tip #7- Check Ebay for CyberMonday Coupons

Tip #8 – Circuit City has a one-day only coupon this Cyber Monday, for those looking to buy a TV or Home Theater system. You can save an additional $100 on TV orders over $1,700 with coupon code YEA2M45AGJ

Tip #9 – Target is offering free shipping on orders over $50.

Tip #10 – Check out CouponChief.com for the latest in Cyber Monday coupons.

Disney checks are loved by many

June 14, 2008 By Sherry Tingley

Some of our most popular checks are the Disney Bank Checks. People really seem to like the variety of Disney characters available.  I’m not sure what the attraction is.  Maybe it’s a special return to that fantasy world that people like.  I know Princess Castles seem  to be popular as well as the Disney Tinkerbell checks.

Other people are just Disney collectors and like anything with Disney in it.
