you start shopping online so they call it cybermonday. here's some security expert tips to protect yourself before you start shopping online today. first, if you can use a separate credit card so if hackers do get your information, the rest of your credit line and bank accounts will be safe. also, pay attention to your statements after your purchases for any unusual microcharges.

hackers hope you won't notice one or two dollars missing from your account. certainly add up. >> the question is not just if you're safe, but they get the best deal. scott mcgrew continues our coverage. >> i think in many cases, guys, you're getting a deal. not necessarily the best deal on cybermonday. we can actually use amazon to examine that idea because amazon is totally data rich. let's take this kitchen aid mixer. this is right on the front page of amazon cybermonday page right this minute. it's on sale and that is a good price. $343. all right, let's put that price up at the top. that's down from an all-time high of $405 back last summer. so, that's a good sale. but this is important. that last number down there, $321.83. that was just 20 some days ago in november. in other words, just looking at november, the price of this

mixer actually went up. you can do your own price analysis. a website called camel, camel. input any page from amazon and show you the price history and alert you when prices go down. it's interesting how many people realized it made more sense to buy online. people were buying but not necessarily in stores. californians were the least likely shoppers to buy whether online or in person black friday. many people realizing prices will fluctuate all season. >> retailers are offering discounts earlier, extending the period by which they're going to offer the discounts later and a lot of consumers believe that they could get discounts of equal value during different periods of time. >> check your news before the bell. landon dowdy is live at cnbc world headquarters. good morning, landon. >> hey, there, scott.

be paying attention from all the different devices from the monitors and even the kitty computer can be hacked. at least up in the cloud at the database. >> never know. >> everything is on a computer is a way into your data. thank you very much, scott. a sign of the holiday season in the south bay. the annual festival of lights lit up downtown los altos last night. this theme was a child's holiday fantasy. the parade featured 25 illuminated floats and twinkling storybook characters and santa. laura will reenact this for us right now. >> no, i just noticed those dancers were all illuminated, as well. let the festivities begin. >> a tin man kind of dance, if you will. >> on nbc. next plug. it is cold. you're going to feel like you're cover ed up in some sort of tin-like atmosphere. >> you are going to want to run.

show me what 15 miles looks like if the amazon launch pad were in, say, downtown palo alto. a big swath of the bay area. you wouldn't need very many drone airports to make this work. a lot of people don't think it will work. a lot of smart people. the tech writer for "wall street journal" says amazon is doing a good job getting a lot of free press for these drones. fun idea, i doubt it will ever happen. who in the world would think google a robot car. the day that was announced, wait, what? robot cars on the road. technaul has a way of surprising you. if you get a gift card and you don't want it, walmart says they'll take it. set up a website with a company called card cash where you can exchange them. i tried it out, guys. let's say i get a $50 gift card to build a bear. >> you don't like the one we gave you. >> i'm not saying you specifically. but let's say there was a guy and a guy named sam and a girl

named laura. i could change that into a $30 gift card at walmart. not even parody, but, still, better for my needs than the 50 bucks you guys gave me. >> it wasn't build a bear, it was vermont teddy bear. >> little classier. >> you need something to cuddle and stay warm, most certainly. it's actually been very difficult for hundreds of people this thanksgiving holiday. many homeless left out in the cold. today 13 daytime warming centers opened around santa clara county. they'll provide an a warm place. particularly helpful for families. santa clara county opened two overnight cold weather shelters because of this cold snap sticking around. >> continue to talk about this, mike made a joke about freezing in traffic, but it is actually freezing outside. >> that part of it is not the joke. >> sorry. >> the traffic, though, yeah, just because our camera froze which does happen, too.

>> blame it on the weather. maybe related, maybe not. >> you know, this is the coldest stretch we've seen since the first week of january. it has been a while since we had three to four days in a row that has been quite this cold and right now speaking of cold, san jose, about 36 degrees and currently 34 in campbell as we show you some of the colder temperatures we're seeing now in the south bay. how about cupertino, 31 grees and saratoga 33 and down in south san jose, 37 right now. look at the temperatures around woodside. 29 degrees and stanford 30 and 31 degrees and 32 in redwood city and now down to 27 degrees in walnut creek and 20s down 680 and danville down to dublin and into the north bay. this is the reason why you have the freeze warning up through about 9:00 this morning. low 30s in petaluma and wind off shore. that is a drying effect to the atmosphere. we need this to switch directions and come off the ocean and that will add to some of the thermal properties that the air can have. you add moreture and can't get quite as cold and we'll see that

later on tonight and during the day today. these clouds coming in and part of to weather system that is weakening as it reaches the bay area. could give us a few showers and all that cloud cover during the day will block a lot of the sunlight that has been helping to warm us up into the mid to upper 50s. today more clouds and same chilly start. 40s and low 50s for highs for i think for most places and mid-50s for san za and san francisco. near 50 in santa rosa and you could see pleasanton and livermore and highs in the low 50s. tuesday into wednesday. wind coming back in off the ocean out of the south should get us back into the highs in the mid-60s there. look at thursday, chance of rain coming back in. the most significant storm we'll see over the next seven days likely to have a big impact on your thursday with some wind and some rain and we could, we think of that thursday system pick up more than an inch of rain maybe north of santa rosa and something to look forward to to next thursday and in addition to temperatures warming up as we go through the week. not the case this morning.

a lot of folks could still be scraping those windshields. >> we'll see how it goes. looking over towards the south bay where traffic flowing well. this is 101 at 680 and we'll show you the entire silicon valley map shows a nice, smooth flow. it is south of this map. you can see it right under the clock. we'll move the map and northbound 101 is slow out of gilroy to san martin & a crash reported right just shy of bailey. now, that's presenting a problem. the chp report says one lane is blocked but other folks are saying maybe more lanes and debris and a crash. we're getting details, but that is a big slow down. aside from the bay bridge toll plaza right there at the toll plaza and off the berkeley curve because the lights are on. tri-valley and over here through pittsburg and bay point. and over here we do see those fastrak lanes still moving well and cash lanes backed up for all lanes all the way across, guys. back to you. >> thanks a lot, mike.

a sign of the holiday season in the south bay. the annual festival of lights lit up downtown los altos last night. this year's theme was a child's holiday fantasy. the parade featured more than 25 illuminated floats and twinkling characters. that guy is santa claus and, of course, santa was there, too. coming up, saying good-bye to a legend. the announcement from nba super star kobe bryant after 20 years with the league. a grocery store full of

protesters. that was the scene at the market street whole foods in 5:56 right now. grocery store full of protesters was the scene at the market street whole foods in san francisco yesterday all because of an investigation into the chain's turkey supplier. >> what do we want? >> animal liberation! >> activists with direct action everywhere wore blue and held pictures of turkeys as they marched around the store yesterday afternoon. they say their protest follows an investigation. the results of which were released last week. the group showed these pictures showing turkeys in crowded barnes and trapped in areas where ficheies coveces covered . wholefoods is firing back after the accusations. they sent us a statement that says, it's important to understand the mission of animal activist groups like this isn't farm animal welfare but rather a total end to animal agricultural

and meat consumption." they found the conditions were not how the group portrayed them. the spokesperson also sent us this picture saying it is from the same farm. a group of disgruntled fans sent the owner of the 49ers a very direct message above levi stadium. this was the scene before the niners game against the arizona cardinals yesterday. a plane pulling a banner that read, jed and 49ers should mutually part ways. that was a specific reference to the words that jed york used to why the team and former coach jim harbaugh parted ways at the end of last season. several fans we talked to said that york should take responsibility if the team struggles this year. >> i agree 1,000%. i feel management and coaching staff. i respect them, but they're not up to par. >> the 49ers lost to the cardinals. their record fell to 3-8 on the season. we're told that banner was funded by several fans using a go fund me account. they collected about 1,000

dollars over the last month. kobe bryant is hanging up his jersey for good at the end of the season. that announcement came in the form of a poem posted dear basketball. in it bryant wrote about his passion for the game he fell in love with when he was just 6 years old. he went on to write "my mind can handle the grime, but my mind knows it's time to say good-bye. i'm ready to let you go." bryant says he's looking forward to life after basketball. >> i honestly feel good about it. i really do. i really feel at peace with it and, you know, excited for what is to come, honestly. >> the future hall of famer won five championships with the lakers and was a 17-time all-star. he is the only nbaer to spend 20 straight seasons with the same team. >> polarizing player, but no doubt one of the greatest of all

time. right now at 6:00, a freezing start to your work day. rob mayeda joining us next with just how low those temperatures will drop. the hot cop of the castro in legal hot water. the hit and run crash that could land this well-known officer behinds. and from standing inline to shopping online. we take you inside amazon as it gets ready to ship out everything you have been snatching up this holiday season. "today in the bay" starts right now. good monday morning, thank you for joining us. i'm sam brock. >> i'm laura garcia-cannon. if you're just waking up, it's freezing outside. let's bring in meteorologist rob mayeda. a freeze warning remains for the nextal hours. >> for the reason just over my shoulder there. looking at tri-y temperatures down to 29 degrees. dublin and danville and 31 in livermore with the freeze warning up through 9:00 this morning for inland locations

throughout the locations. our temperatures by noon as clouds come in, only 40s. high temperature upper 40s to low 50s and a chance of seeing a few showers outside. those 50s will probably feel a little bit better than the 20s and 30s we're seeing outside this morning, mike. >> by comparison. sure we're looking over to the bay bridge. by comparison this is moving very well. we are showing that backup and the build coming off of the east shore freeway and the maze. a crash west 80 that is blocking one lane and causing quite a distraction out of richmond just as things are building down through hercules and heading in that commute direction. a typical pattern for the rest of the bay for this monday. lighter flow through the tri-valley and hayward and back to work for a holiday week and let me show you coming into san jose, this is a big problem for the bay. san martin up into morgan hill. we still have a crash on the chp and not a lot of details but at least one, if not more lanes are blocked. folks, get off of here from
