"There's a lot of today left, so take some time, do some price comparison,” said Bree Fowler from Consumer Reports. “Don't feel pushed. Don't rush in cause even though this is Cyber Monday, I guarantee you there'll be another sale before Christmas."

Experts also remind consumers that Cyber Monday tends to be a big day for cyber crime. The Department of Homeland Security reminds people to shop through trusted sources, use secure payment methods and opt for two-factor security when it's available.
