Have you taken advantage of any Cyber Monday deals yet?

HuffPost Tech has no shortage of roundups to help you find the best offers out there.

While the deals aren't that difficult to cash in on -- simply follow these tips to maximize savings -- there's not much time left, at least on some websites.

Cyber Monday offers are typically good only on the Monday after Thanksgiving, but more and more companies are extending promotions for "Cyber Week."

Shoppers can find Cyber Week discounts online at sites, such as Amazon, Target, Walmart. Kohl's has also extended its Cyber Monday deals until Dec 1.

Whether or not "cyber" deals are extended depends on the store.

Kmart's Cyber Monday promotions last until Tuesday, Nov. 27, Patch notes. Similarly, Best Buy began Cyber Monday promotions on Sunday, making the sale a two-day event.

A few companies are extending their "cyber" offers through the holiday season, such as Apple, which is offering free shipping on all of its products through Dec. 21.

Preliminary reports for this year's Cyber Monday show a spike in online sales, Reuters reports.
