If you didn't feel like braving the crowds for last week's big Black Friday sales, Cyber Monday and Cyber Week are made for you. Shopping online is easier than ever before, and most major retailers even offer free shipping on most items over a certain amount -- usually $50.
So the modern holiday shopper is poised to enjoy some great deals this week without setting foot outside the house. And in this article, we're going to take a look at what the two retail giants, Walmart and Target, have to offer for this Cyber Week sale.
Walmart
If you're looking to grab a new Apple iPad Mini 16 GB wi-fi edition, you can find it at Walmart for only $199 -- a savings of $49. Or if you're looking for an inexpensive 10" tablet, how about the RCA 16 GB Quad Core 10.1" tablet with bonus keyboard and case for only $89. It's a top seller this week!
The Super Mario Bros 2 edition of Nintendo's 3DS XL is on sale for $149, as is the Sceptre 32" HDR LED TV. Or if you're more interested in the Xbox One, you can find it for only $329 as a bundle with Assassin's Creed Unity. That's a total savings of $71 off retail price.
Target
One of the best deals you'll find at Target this Cyber Monday is the Xbox One bundle with Assassin's Creed Unity and Black Flag, plus an additional $25 Xbox Live gift card and a $10 off coupon toward a controller, all for only $329.
The retailer is also offering a special deal when you want to buy multiples of the same item. You can get 50% off certain bedding and bath items for the kids when you buy one at full retail price, and the same goes for select Crayola and My Little Pony toys. If you or your kids were excited by the latest Star Wars trailer this weekend, you might be happy to hear that the same deal goes for Star Wars toys, as well. The six-pack of Star Wars Rebel Titan figures is not only buy-one-get-one-half-off, but it's also enjoying an additional 10% discount.
What's even better is the deals on apparel. Buy select clothing, shoes, and accessories and get another one 60% off. Our Generation dolls and accessories are 50% off, a special selection of furniture and home decor is 40% off, and the popular KitchenAid mixer has been slashed to $224.99 from the regular retail price of $449.99!
If you're looking for a new television, how about a Samsung 40" Class 1080p LED TV for only $379.99 (regular price $629.99) with a free $30 Target gift card tacked on for good measure.
And if you haven't put up your Christmas tree just yet, you can get a 7.5-foot pre-lit Virginia Pine artificial tree for only $80.40 (regular price $134) with a $10 Target gift card included.
Target, like Walmart, is also offering free shipping, but only through the holidays. This is for standard shipping (3-5 business days) and has no minimum purchase limitation.
No matter which retailer you choose for your Cyber Week shopping, we wish you a safe and festive Christmas season.
