Green Monday

Green Monday is an online retail industry term similar to Cyber Monday. The term was coined by eBay in 2007[1] to describe the best sales day in December,[2][3] usually the second Monday of December. Green Monday is defined more specifically by business research organization comScore as the last Monday with at least 10 days prior to Christmas.
