It’s been a busy shopping weekend and Amazon seems to have reaped its rewards. Cyber Monday was once again the company’s biggest shopping day, selling more products than it has any other day of the year. Globally, shoppers were said to have purchased a “record number” of Amazon devices with customers ordering over 18 million toys and more than 13 million fashion items on during both Black Friday and Cyber Monday combined. Small and medium-sized businesses on the site grew over 20 percent on Black Friday year-on-year.

What did the Canadians shop for over the weekend? The all-new Echo Dot, Fire TV Stick 4K with all-new Alexa Voice Remote, L.O.L. Surprise! Dolls Holiday Series Surprise, and Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 Multi-Use Programmable Pressure Cooker - 6 Quart are the best-selling products across Amazon.ca. On Cyber Monday, Canadians took advantage of deals on AncestryDNA: Genetic Testing Ethnicity and the Nintendo Switch Console was a top-selling item.
