Final Cyber Monday Totals
Cyber Monday lived to the hype — and then some — when it comes to online sales. Adobe Analytics reports a record $9.4 billion was spent online the Monday after Thanksgiving — an increase of nearly 20% over last year. Monday's totals represent the largest online shopping day of all time in the U.S. The previous mark was set last year, when shoppers spent $7.9 billion. The big hero in the numbers: smartphones. Adobe says about a-third of the transactions made online were done with phones, as opposed to through tablets or computers.
