Black Friday (Nov 29) and Cyber Monday (Dec 2) are the ultimate shopping days of the year, and they’ve officially overtaken Boxing Day as Canada’s busiest shopping events.?
Once the peak season for Canadian shoppers, Boxing Day now trails behind, with Statista reporting that in 2023, 40% of consumers hit up Black Friday deals, 37% shopped on Cyber Monday, and only 32% on Boxing Day.
