WATCH | Meanwhile, this year for shoppers it's been all about Black November. Retailers have been capitalizing on consumers' online shopping habits to catch them when they're in the mood to spend.
More Cyber Monday shoppers
The National Retail Federation (NRF) expects more than 122 million Americans to shop virtually on Cyber Monday, up from 121 million in 2015.
Black Friday accounted for an eye-popping $3.34 billion in online sales. Knowing some consumers are spreading their shopping budgets over a period of months, retailers have promoted Black Friday-level deals since early November.
Biggest sellers so far? Toys and tech
Adobe says the top-selling electronics over the weekend were the Sony PS4, Microsoft Xbox, Samsung 4K TVs, Apple iPads and Amazon Fire.
As for toys, Lego sets, Shopkins, Nerf toys, Barbie dolls and Little Live Pets made the list for top-sellers.
