- I have the 10 worst purchases
you can make Cyber Monday 2019.
Some will surprise you, some will stun you.
But either way, (box rattles)
you're gonna save a lot of money.
(till rings) (Christmas music)
Your 10 worst purchases, 10 items not to buy,
10 things to avoid.
Hello, thank you for not avoiding me.
I'm the YouTube Deal Guy,
Matt Granite from mattsdailydeals.com.
If you missed me live on Amazon yesterday,
with that huge setup as we led into
an amazing Black Friday for the record books,
where I'm still giving away all sorts of
Cyber Monday door-busters,
and things that you may not even know you want yet.
If you subscribe to this channel,
you've got that early inside scoop to my best deals.
I will also be live, at Amazon, on Monday.
There'll be crazy tech deals tomorrow,
and then more importantly today, what
not to buy.
I know it's Small Business Saturday,
and I know there are different members of our community
that need our support after all those big-box chaos.
But as I struggle to put more money
back in your wallet where it belongs,
a reminder that if you do wanna get in on my giveaways,
this is what you can do before we count down the deals.
Head over to mattsdailydeals.com,
you will get an annoying email popup box.
This will make every day feel like Cyber Monday.
You sign up here, I will help you
through Christmas and beyond,
and also get you early inside access to
all those big tech deals from the Consumer Electronics Show.
I will of course be live from Las Vegas in January.
I would love for you guys to stick around.
You'll see my latest deals, all sorts of fun things,
and of course, now that list of what not to buy.
Which brings us to the first item to avoid
as we count them down backwards.
Number 10, say goodbye to many of the small appliance deals.
If you were excited about the Instant Pot deals,
and some other multi-cooker deals, those were very popular.
Big appliances are a great purchase on Cyber Monday.
That means Home Depot, Best Buy, Lowes.
Big appliances yes, small appliances for the most part, no.
Anything your seeing on Cyber Monday is just
a store tryin' to pawn off items that it could not sell
for the most part on Black Friday,
so do keep that in mind.
That also goes with gaming devices.
So all of these gaming device bundles
that I helped you score huge deals on
with regards to on Black Friday,
just not a great deal on Cyber Monday.
Also, yes, let's talk about the iPhone for a moment
as we count down deal number eight.
So I'm still giving away another iPhone 11 Pro,
I'm excited about that.
Black Friday is a day where stores try to get you
to come into their brick-and-mortar doors,
or behind their brick-and-mortar doors if that makes sense.
And a lot of the iPhone deals,
and many of the Samsung deals,
are padded with gift cards, and they're door-busters,
and they require an activation in the store.
On Cyber Monday there's still a few of those deals,
but since these deals are really
a draw to get you inside the store,
when you are shopping for the most part online,
because Cyber Monday is a cyber, digital, occasion,
not that great, and not really worth your while.
In the number seven spot,
of what not to buy Cyber Monday 2019, Android tablets.
Just not a great purchase on Cyber Monday.
Those are more aggressively marketed on Black Friday.
Kepp in mind, things like
that crazy $80 RCA Android Pro tablet from Walmart,
that's a great online digital door-buster.
Not as good on Cyber Monday though.
One exception are the Amazon Fire tablets.
Those deals are insane on Cyber Monday,
and I'll of course have your early kick-off
if your looking to save a lot of money on a Fire device.
Number six, drones.
And yes,
I dunno who bought this one.
Not a hugely popular product on Cyber Monday.
It's actually kind of dwindled in terms of appeal
from Black Friday, but if you are in the market for a drone,
I did get a lot of requests for those,
who missed some of those quick flash sales
I featured on drones on Black Friday.
Not a great buy on Cyber Monday,
so I would avoid it of you can.
Drones also fall under the toy category.
I know they're for advanced hobbyists as well,
and toys, which we'll get to,
are a much better purchase closer to Christmas,
so wouldn't bother with that right now.
Next deal to avoid, and the number five spot,
DSLR cameras.
Black Friday, hands-down, the time to buy these
if they are featured in parts of bundles.
If you do see a few deals kickin' around today,
they're generally more of the point-and-shoot cameras,
and the DSLR, and definitely not something
I would stock up on right now.
There'll be a couple of flash sales tied to these
on Green Monday.
We'll discuss that in a moment.
That being said, I do have a TV right here.
I dunno if you can see that.
With the exception of two or three remaining sales
at Best Buy and Cyber Monday for Target as well,
other than those flash sales, if you absolutely missed
all of the TV deals on Black Friday,
which ran for three weeks straight, with repeated reminders,
buy it now, don't by it Cyber Monday,
there'll be a few surprise TV deals on my list,
maybe in a high-ranking spot, Monday, pardon me.
But this is something I wouldn't really
put a lot of effort into on Cyber Monday.
There will be a couple of TV deals,
and closeout deals, as we end off 2019.
Robovacs in the number three spot
of what not to buy on Cyber Monday.
They're just not that great,
and a lot of them have been marked up.
If you are able to score a few remaining of the
Cordey Robovacs,
those are the wet-mop and wet-vac combination,
they're great, but when you look at
some of the other models on the market,
like the DEEBOT, the Roomba, the prices and reductions
are not as aggressive as they were Black Friday,
so I'm gonna flag that as something I would not buy
in my number three spot.
In my number two spot,
furniture is much more heavily marketed on Black Friday.
So for Wayfair overstock, you will be able to find
some good leftover savings, but these were
not the dominant deals that we saw on Black Friday.
And just to give you an example,
the Black Friday Blowouts, and all those early access sales,
they really did start to clear the stock early.
So anything left now is generally remaining stock
if you are searching for furniture.
One exception might be the Safavieh line on Amazon.
They've got some really good deals,
but as a whole, Black Friday mattresses and furniture deals
are more dominant than Cyber Monday.
And in the number one spot
of what I absolutely would not buy Cyber Monday,
(box rattles) toys.
Whatever toy it is, if it is a toy, wait.
Every year, you will be enticed by some wonderful toy deals.
Those were late air-quotes,
I should have done them at the same time.
Late toy deals, that trickle into Cyber Monday,
and then if you really do hold off,
and you inch as close to Christmas as you possibly can,
basically Green Monday and beyond,
the best deals, hands-down, of the year,
affect toy lines across the country,
and that is when manufacturers and distributors
are their most desperate to try and get you to spend money,
because they know you're buying out of necessity.
And as we count down with those 12 days to Christmas,
I would wait.
Green Monday happens the second Monday of November.
It was an occasion actually coined by eBay, and by the way,
I will have some eBay Cyber Monday deals on Cyber Monday,
which is very cool.
Green Monday is kind of like a second chance,
if you missed Cyber Monday.
It's a last chance for retailers to really try and push you,
and there are some phenomenal deals,
actually on the tech front.
So I will be live, on Cyber Monday, as well as Green Monday.
So that's December 2nd, Cyber Monday,
December 9th, Green Monday,
and you can actually finish off
a lot of your holiday shopping
if you by any chance missed it.
So those are very exciting deals,
and of course other occasions, but more importantly,
know what not to buy.
Sometimes when I have the privilege
of interacting with subscribers during my live shows,
I sometimes have people who will say,
"I only shop Black Friday."
Or, "I only shop Cyber Monday."
Well you can't really just pick one.
It's like saying, "I only shop at Amazon."
Or, "I only shop at Walmart."
You can't get the full big-picture when it comes to bargains
if you restrict your purchases to one time of the year
or one store.
So even if there are stores you don't like,
or days you don't wanna shop,
I kinda try to be as open-minded as possible.
And it is my job to make sure that I flag
the best deals for you,
and you don't get bombarded with bargains from every store
that has a Cyber Monday last chance,
and early Cyber Monday,
and it feels as though a lot of the Black Friday deals
started in early October, and the Cyber Monday deals
aren't gonna end, because there'll be Cyber Tuesday,
and Cyber Week, so just keep in mind that
there's no one time only where you won't miss out on a deal,
and I'll make sure that you never miss out
if you're subscribed to this channel.
I would love to have you stick around,
this is what you can do.
