A recent Holiday Spending Survey from FatWallet reports that more consumers plan to spend more money during December sales than on Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals. Last year, Green Monday kicked off the second heaviest online shopping week of the 2013 holiday shopping season and the day ranked third for total retail sales (Comscore). "The second Monday in December is always one of our busiest shopping days of the year," states Brent Shelton, Online Shopping Expert at FatWallet. "We see a lot of rollover from the Thanksgiving weekend and Cyber Monday sales with lower pricing on some products, and the increased cash back helps families stretch December budgets as they finish off holiday shopping."

Green Monday shoppers can expect a variety of store-wide discounts and savings ranging from 20-50% off clothing, toys, home and kitchen items, and select electronics, mobile devices, computer products and accessories. Those shopping through FatWallet can earn cash back on Green Monday purchases from hundreds of stores listed on the site, or they can use the new FatWallet Express browser extension to alert them when cash back is available as the shop and search online.
