If you passed out in a post-Thanksgiving coma and missed the Black Friday shopping frenzy, you’re probably stressing about all the deals you missed on vibrators, face masks, and anti-aging skincare. Well, don’t waste too much time crying over the deals that got away, because Cyber Monday 2020 is almost here—and the sales might just be even better than Black Friday.
Often overshadowed by Black Friday, Cyber Monday rivals its predecessor with equally good discounts, just with way less fanfare. It arrives each year with an exclusive set of fresh deals for shoppers available only after the madness of Black Friday has come to an end. This delay between shopping events ensures there’s plenty of time to restock sold-out goodies and to squeeze in a few orders from small businesses alongside big box stores.
It’s also a learning curve for experienced shoppers. They take note of Black Friday deals that sold out (like Apple Watch Series 3 for just $120) and watch for similar discounts, ensuring they don’t miss out on the best savings again. A better option? Checking out our curated list of the best Cyber Monday deals, below.
From athleisure and gym bags to comfy shoes and cozy bedding, we’ve got all the best deals that Health editors are adding to their shopping carts right now. After all, this is an entire day dedicated to scoring the best online deals, and we’re experts there.

Model doesn't feel safe wearing designer clothes in Canada's biggest city | Canada – Daily Hive
A model says she feels like a “sitting duck” wearing designer clothes in downtown Toronto amid a general state of unease in the city in response to an uptick in violent crimes.
Hanya Kizemchuk posted a video on Instagram and TikTok where the local model claimed that she sprinted two blocks to her car after a recent modelling shoot in Toronto after being overcome with the sense that her expensive attire read as “a stop sign screaming ‘rob me.’”
In the video, Kizemchuk describes the scene on a cold, rainy night after finishing a shoot, explaining, “I wrapped my head in my Louis Vuitton wrap. I had my Louis Vuitton duffle bag with all my shoes and makeup and whatever I need for that job. I was wearing my Gucci crossover and I was wearing my black leather Burberry coat.”
“And as I jumped out onto the street, I have to say that I realized for the first time ever in the city of downtown Toronto, I was truly like a sitting duck and that this is no longer okay to be running around like this, that I need to be a little more downplayed so that I don’t attract attention.”
Kizemchuk says she was “a little unnerved” and felt compelled to run “two blocks to my car and continuously check to see if anyone was popping out from somewhere because I was like a stop sign screaming, ‘Rob me.’”
“And that’s how I felt for the first time ever in this beautiful city of Toronto, which I grew up in and don’t recognize anymore.”
A few chimed in, sharing comments siding with Kizemchuk.
Unfortunately crime has increased everywhere. If you are on the street in downtown Toronto, and you are decked out head to toe in designer goods, you are calling attention to yourself and you would be lucky if you’re not mugged. Sadly, it is the same or worse in all big cities.

Others questioned why she would run away without identifying any specific threats and then make a post online about feeling unsafe.
So nothing happened? She just felt scared walking to her car and no one was around?

One user pointed out how this video is another example of wealth inequality and the ever-growing divide between the rich and poor in Toronto.
lady with extreme wealth complains about wealth inequality
🤷♂️
lady, we’ve been screaming for years.
— Dave Jay (@DaveJayToronto) April 18, 2024
According to Toronto Police data, major crime indicators have spiked year-to-date in several categories during 2024, including assault (+10.9%) and robbery (+19.7%).

Forged by friendship, this year's Stampede boots pay tribute to Stoney Nakoda iconography – MSN
If not for Duane Mark and Lloyd Templeton’s budding friendship, this year’s Calgary Stampede boot design would have never existed.
While the boot was only constructed in recent months, the process began when Templeton, a Calgary-raised artist in his early 20s, approached Mark with a request to use images of the Stoney Nakoda teepee-holder and educator for artwork he was preparing for the Calgary Stampede.
The two clicked from the get-go. By November, after hours together, Templeton’s piece featuring Mark — dressed in full regalia standing in the foreground of the Calgary Tower among a diverse group of parade participants — was chosen as the 2024 Stampede poster artwork.
On Thursday, Templeton’s art was unveiled as the design for this year’s Stampede boot — now the second product of their friendship that’s been produced for this year’s 10-day rodeo and fair.
“What comes to mind is the growth of a young man named Lloyd,” Mark said, when asked what he sees in this year’s boot design.
The artwork on the exterior reflects key Stoney Nakoda First Nation and Treaty 7 iconography, Templeton said at Thursday’s unveiling. Stitchings of Alberta’s mountain range and the golden eagle flying through a rising sun — two important symbols for the First Nation’s culture — line the outside of the boot.
The boot’s interior has the words Oyadé Gichiyabi, Ahogichopabi Îyûhabith inscribed, which roughly translates in Stoney language to “be empowered to foster peace and respect,” which was selected at Mark’s recommendation.
A recent graduate from the Alberta University of the Arts, Templeton is becoming a household name in Calgary’s arts community at a pace that’s not lost on him.
“Just last year I was making school projects, and a year later, there’s going to be people wearing my art. That’s nuts,” he said.
Working in three dimensions was a new challenge for Templeton. To start, he would tape paper to the back of the boot to get a feel for the shapes he needed to produce. He then drew the designs by pencil, scanned them into his computer and produced it into a special file that allowed it to be etched by laser onto the boots.
“My poster was oil paint, a very traditional process,” he said. “I was kind of making it up on the go to see what worked. I liked the challenge of that.”
Margaret Holloway, the Stampede’s 2024 First Nations Princess who also provided input on the boot design, said she was “breathtaken, speechless” when she first saw the design. Breaking from tradition, this year’s design will be available on five different shades of boot. Alberta Boot normally creates one special boot for each Stampede.
The 22-year-old jingle dancer is the first person from Stoney Nakoda to be named First Nations Princess in more than 20 years.
Holloway’s family teepee at the Elbow River Camp has three large eagles on it, she said.
“Back home, we see the eagles fly and we feel blessed by their presence, and we feel amazed just by their beauty of soaring in the skies. To see that on this year’s Stampede boot was absolutely unbelievable.”
With their latest creation publicly revealed, Templeton and Mark’s friendship will extend far past their artistic collaboration.
“He’s the coolest dude. We have a lot in common — a good sense of humour, listen to the same music and movies. We make a lot of the same jokes,” Templeton said.
Mark said he’s watched the young artist grow and mature in front of his eyes. Over the past year they’ve discussed “deep Indigenous philosophy,” which Templeton has evidently absorbed into his own life, he said.
“We became the best of friends and will continue to be the best of friends,” Mark said.
