Cyber Monday deals are being stretched out this holiday season, crimping sales on the day itself.
Retailers from Target to Amazon have been offering online deals since the beginning of November, and are promising "cyber" deals all week. That seems to have put a dent in Cyber Monday sales.
"I asked (our shipping department), 'Did you have a pretty busy day yesterday with Cyber Monday?' And their response was, 'No, not really. It wasn't terribly big,'" said BYU store employee Kent Minson.
The BYU Store sent out an email on Dec. 2, the day after Cyber Monday, advertising "The Mother of All Sales." Store employees say that although their Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales aren't huge, they focus more on the holiday season as a whole.
"I would say we're probably busier...when there's something on campus that brings a lot of people," said BYU employee Jennifer Janis.
