Green Monday

Green Monday is not dedicated to nature, as it might seem at first glance—it’s another day of special sales before Christmas! Everyone can take part: simply choose the items you’ve been dreaming about and shop today.

History

Green Monday isn’t as famous as Black Friday, but many retailers offer substantial discounts. Shoppers report finding some of the lowest prices of the season if they shop on this day. The term was coined by eBay analysts who noted a surge in purchases early in December, as customers who missed earlier sales rush to complete their holiday shopping. By extending the sales frenzy beyond Cyber Monday, retailers boost their profits, while buyers get one more chance to fill their carts before Christmas.
