Counting in your browser timezone…

Cyber Monday is the Monday after US Thanksgiving — four days after the fourth Thursday of November. It is a retail marketing day invented for people who went back to work (and to office broadband) after the long weekend. DaysUntil computes Thanksgiving, adds four days, and counts to that Monday in your browser timezone. In 2026 the Monday is November 30; in 2027 it is November 29. Offices and schools are typically open. We do not stretch the name into a “Cyber Week.”

FAQ

When is Cyber Monday?
The Monday after Thanksgiving. In 2026 that is November 30; in 2027 it is November 29. After that local Monday ends, we aim at next November. The rule is relative, not a hard-coded date.
Who created Cyber Monday?
Shop.org and the National Retail Federation popularized the phrase in 2005 for the first Monday of online shopping after Thanksgiving weekend, when workers returned to faster workplace connections than many homes had. Unique to this page: the name is younger than Black Friday by decades, and it only exists because broadband used to live at the office.
Is it a holiday?
No. Offices and schools are typically open. It is a marketing label, not a federal closing. If a retailer extends deals through Tuesday, that is a sale, not a new civil date.
Why might another site disagree?
Brands now stretch “Cyber Week” from Thanksgiving night through mid-December. We count only the Monday after Thanksgiving in your local zone.
How is this different from Black Friday?
Black Friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving (plus one day). Cyber Monday is plus four days. Same holiday weekend, different civil date, different page, different share URL.
Should I use this page for a Tuesday deal drop?
No. Build a custom countdown for a specific sale end time. This page stays on the Monday so a shared link stays stable.
Why keep a separate page from Black Friday at all?
Searchers still type the two names as if they were different days — because they are. Folding them into one “shopping week” URL would hide the Monday and break existing links. If you only care about a retailer's multi-day sale window, a custom end-time countdown is more honest than stretching this Monday.
What should remote workers know that the 2005 coinage assumed?
The original Cyber Monday story assumed you had better broadband at the office than at home. That assumption aged poorly. The date survived anyway as a marketing peg. Unique planning note: treat the Monday as a named sale day, not as proof that you must wait until you “get back to work.”
