Amazon.ca had the busiest holiday season yet.
The online company says a record amount of packages were shipped within Canada, and worldwide, they delivered to 185 different countries.
Some of the bestsellers included: the Harry Potter Official Colouring Book #1, Jurassic World, and Adele’s album, 25.
Another in demand item was Lego: customers purchased enough of the bricks to reach the top of the CN Tower 27 times.
There was a surge in ugly Christmas sweater purchases: enough were bought to clothe each Canadian Olympic medalist in the Summer and Winter Games since 1900, five times.
Amazon.ca users also purchased more pairs of jeans than there are cities, towns and villages in the country.
