A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.

So today appears to be "Cyber Monday" - the day that online retailers brace themselves for a pre-Christmas shopping frenzy.

Paper Monitor is confused. Haven't we already had Cyber Monday? Wasn't it last week?

Apparently UK retailers have been split over which day to mark as the biggest pre-Christmas online bonanza. According to the Guardian, spending as consumers try to meet postal deadlines.

The Mail quotes the boss of one chain of toy shops as saying it is the most "discounted Christmas" that he has know in 30 years.

The Daily Express publishes a picture of crowding down a street in Liverpool. Apparently there were Santa sprints all over the country on Sunday. Had news of the High Street bargains reached the North Pole?
