Elsewhere, shoppers scooped up gadgets en masse. Apple products were top sellers in eight different states while the Google Chromecast was highly sought in California, Delaware and Florida. Laptops were the top item in New Hampshire and Oregon, while the District of Columbia went straight for Sceptre 50-inch televisions.

Toys were popular, too: LEGO Classic Creative Boxes were the hot item in New York while "Call of Duty: Black Ops 4" topped the list in Rhode Island.

Industry-wide, Cyber Monday is expected to have hit $7.9 billion, up 19.7 percent from last year, according to projections from Adobe. Thanksgiving Day generated $3.7 billion in online spending, up 28 percent, while Black Friday brought in $6.2 billion, a 23.6 percent increase from a year ago, Adobe said.
