Formally, "Monday at midnight" occurs as the clock on Sunday night clicks over to midnight, since that's 00:00 hours on Monday. Midnight tonight is actually tomorrow. In a more vernacular sense, midnight Monday is late at night on Monday. I'm not sure which Don meant.

The offer is still good this evening (11/27), for certain.

lyrics by Bob Gibson said:
I started on a journey about a year ago to a little town called Morrow in the State of Ohio.
I've never been much of a traveler, and I really didn't know that Morrow was the hardest place I'd ever try to go.

So I went down to the station for my ticket and applied for tips regarding Morrow not expecting to guyed.
Said I, "My friend, I'd like to go to Morrow and return no later than tomorrow for I haven't time to burn."

Said he to me, "Now let me see if I have heard you right. You'd like to go to Morrow and return tomorrow night.
You should have gone to Morrow yesterday and back today for the train that goes to Morrow is a mile upon its way.

If you had gone to Morrow yesterday now don't you see, you could have gone to Morrow and returned today at three
For the train today to Morrow, if the schedule is right, today it goes to Morrow and returns tomorrow night."

Said I, "My friend, it seems to me you're talking through your hat. There is a town named Morrow on the line now tell me that."
"There is," said he, "but take me a quiet little tip. To go from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour trip.

The train today to Morrow leaves today at eight thirty-five. At half-past ten tomorrow is the time it should arrive.
So if from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour jump, can you go today to Morrow and get back today, you chump?"

Said I, "I'd like to go to Morrow so can I go today and get to Morrow by tonight if there is no delay?"
"Well, well," said he to me, "and I've got no more to say. CAN YOU GET anywhere tomorrow and get back again today?"

Said I, "I guess you know it all but kindly let me say, how can I get to Morrow if I leave this town today?"
Said he, "You cannot go to Morrow any more today 'cause the train that goes to Morrow is a mile upon its way."

I was so disappointed. I was mad enough to swear. The train had gone to Morrow and had left me standing there.
HE HAD NO RIGHT in telling me that I was a-howling jay. I could not go to Morrow so I guess in town I'll stay.

I think when he says "Sale ends Monday at midnight (Eastern time) 11-28-16." .. You can place an order as late as 11:59 PM Monday night.

Midnight suggests PM or after noon. AM is morning, so if I said the sale ends at 12:00 Monday morning, you would be too late.

I'm not sure why anyone would refer to the first second of a new day and "night" or midnight.

I thought I read somewhere that the difference in question used to be noted as 12 M(midnight) or 12 N (noon) ,solely for this twice daily occurring but brief purpose.

As usual, Don's customer service is absolutely impeccable. I ordered on Black Friday. Don musta been waiting at his puter with bated breath, printed off the order soon as it came in, and hotfooted it out to the warehouse before the ink toner was even dry. Bagged up the batch, jumped on his trike madly thumbing the bell, chased down the mail truck, handed the postman the package -- along with a fifty buck tip to ensure promptness, and slapped him on the rear bumper, hollering "Giddee yup now!" Cause that package was in a Dull-Aware post office by Sunday.

Unfortunately, that post office is the one in Bear DE, about four miles southeast; rather than the one in Newark, half a mile northwest. So far, it has taken as long to trek the 4 1/2 miles from Bear to Newark as was required to jaunt 450 from Akron to Philly to DullAware. I'm thinking the first postman did not forward a portion of the fifty buck tip to these local fellows To Insure Promptness as instructed.

The happy news is, this package is still scheduled for delivery yesterday. So that's good. I'm looking forward to yesterday. How's the song go? "The sun will come out... yesterday..."

Anyhoo, regardless -- Don's prompt service is impeccable.
