I enjoy both, personally. There's nothing quite like the experience of waiting in line at 4 in the morning to catch a good deal, lol! Although, I haven't done that in years. There haven't been any sales in the past years that were all that great to me, personally, and it's because of this reason I prefer Cyber Monday, or any online retailer's Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale. They usually are better and you can enjoy shopping at home. Hard to beat the convenience really.

That and even though it's "Cyber Monday", many websites do their own Black Friday or extend Black Friday to Cyber Monday where the two prime days are discounted with the weekend having a couple specials and such. It all depends on the website if they do one, the other, or something else entirely. Regardless, it's fun, hectic, and exciting even if it can get ridiculous, ha ha.

If we mean Black Friday=In Stores and Cyber Monday=Online, then definitely Cyber Monday. I'd rather not fight crowds, and if I'm going to be awake at 4 am, I'd rather be in my undies on my computer...as usual.

I get a little bit anxious in crowds sometimes, so black friday is not for me.

I've never been a fan of shopping, so standing in lines for hours on end doesn't appeal to me. Cyber Monday from the comfort of my couch is were it is at!

both. i love the craziness of black friday, and the laziness that is encouraged on Cyber Mondays. It's probably one of my favorite times of the year lol

I shop little by little all year long, so I've never really done the black friday thing, and only bother with cyber monday if I see something I reallyyyy have to have.

We don't do the usual shopping stuff most people do around the holidays. We never go out on Black Friday, never.

Neither cause I'm not American. I probably wouldn't abuse the sales even if we did have them here, unless I could do it online.

If I'm buying anything like that, it will be on Cyber Monday. It is NOT worth it to go out on Black Friday.

I really hate crowds, nothing about Black Friday appeals to me. There might be good deals, but at what price? I would be stressed out, unhappy, and it would ruin my day. The day after Thanksgiving is for relaxing!

I like shopping online. To me you get more deals on the internet than you do in stores.

neither. I hate being around a bunch of rude people, all shopping for Christmas. And cyber monday is pretty much all hype, not alot of items that I would want to buy on sale.

Love the sales in general! Cyber monday is just easier without having to coordinate a military strategy the night before. I also really dislike the whole 'armageddon cometh unless I score a TV' attitude of black friday..the stampedes are just absurd.

They're both awesome, but I'll only be able to do the Cyber Monday shopping this yeah.
I'm hoping EF has some kind of awesome Cyber Monday event.

After having to work in the mall for two Black Friday's, I will never attend one, ever. For me it's not worth the trouble of traffic, parking, and dealing with crazy people.

I always go to Black Friday. And if I have money left over and can find the deals on Cyber Monday I will buy then too.

There is nothing I could think of that I would ever want so bad to go and battle lines and crowds on Black Friday. I do most of my shopping online.

Having worked in retail during black Friday I will NEVER go there to save a few bucks. I rather do cyber monday or nothing at all.

Last time I did shopping on Black Friday, I got the best deal ever! My husband! I've not gone back since, just can't top that. I will be shopping on Cyberspace Monday though!

I just heard a news report that for TV's and such, there are MORE deals on BETTER items to be had on Cyber Monday. Friday is when the LOWER END items (like the 720p TV's) get "dumped" on the rampaging hoards waiting up all night at the door.

Monday is when the current generation stuff goes on decent sale price.

All depends what you are seeking.

I used to be one of those drinking hot chocolate and IN LINE at 4am....more for fun then real honest bargains, since it was soon evident that the items on sale for black Friday were almost never the newest or best of any line. It was a chance for the stores to get rid of the OLD inventory to folks willing to wait up all night to snatch it.

When that woman was trampled to death last year at WalMart, I said "forget it...that ain't worth $50 to get last years model TV"!!!! Nuts...really nuts.

We too used to have our "to the minute" "plan" of where to be, when to be there, and where the family (split among four stores) would meet for 8 am breakfast (we were in line by 3 am...coffee or hot chocolate in hand) and then hit the "afternoon sales".

NO MORE!!!!
