5 Categories Expected to Have Early Cyber Monday Deals
Shoppers are eagerly awaiting Cyber Monday 2023, when they can buy all their favorite products while saving money. The good news is that brands roll out deals well in advance, so one doesn’t have to wait too long. While this year’s early bird deals haven’t yet been announced, it’s good to take note of popular shopping categories. From TVs to smartphones, here are five categories expected to have early deals based on last year’s trends.
TVs
There was no shortage of TV deals last Cyber Monday. Popular brands like LG, Insignia, Samsung, Sony, and Hisense had incredible offers on their best-selling models. This includes 4K and OLED TVs as large as 65 inches! Last year, LG’s 65-inch OLED TV was priced at around $1,700 during the sale after a $400 discount. Similarly, after a discount, Hisense’s 50-inch ULED 4K TV was up for grabs at $300. We expect the deals to get sweeter this year, so those looking for a new TV should shortlist their options and wait for the early deals to roll in. Besides price drops, brands may introduce coupon codes like CYBER5, through which shoppers may be able to get an extra 5% off.
Software subscriptions
This is another popular category that sees great discounts around Cyber Monday. Last year, people enjoyed exciting offers on subscription plans for computer software. For instance, the Microsoft Office Professional 2021 lifetime license was priced at around $30 after a 50% discount. The offer was available for both Mac and Windows so all users could benefit from it. Likewise, the Dollar Flight Club Premium subscription two-pack was priced at $75 after a 94% discount. This is an excellent plan for anyone who travels often and wants to know exclusive deals on flights and bookings. The subscription allowed two accounts, so individuals could gift the second to a friend or a family member. Language learning apps like Rosetta Stone also handed out subscriptions at 50% of the original price, including all 25 languages available in the app! Those who missed these subscription deals last Cyber Monday should plan ahead and make the most of the 2023 sales expected to begin soon.
Laptops
Cyber Monday unleashes a ton of discounts on laptops, including those from premium brands like Apple. Last year, shoppers enjoyed fantastic offers on the MacBook Air. The 256 GB option was priced at around $1,199 after a $450 discount, the MacBook Pro at $1,299 after a discount of around $200, and the iMac 27-inches at $1,200 after a $600 discount.
