Poll: Did You 'Cyber-Shop'?

Online shopping was up 33 percent over last Cyber Monday, according to IBM.

In the past few years, retailers have viewed the Monday after Thanksgiving as a follow-up to the annual Black Friday craze — and shoppers have followed, with Cyber Monday 2010 accounting for some $1.02 billion in sales, according to comScore.com.

Did you do any shopping online yesterday? Take our poll, and add your comments below.
