Target, the second-largest discount retailer in the United States behind Walmart, today released a chart listing the most popular products that shoppers were purchasing on Thanksgiving and Black Friday.

The iPads were top sellers in Target’s brick-and-mortar and online stores, with the retailer selling an iPad every second throughout the day on Thanksgiving, Forbes reports.

As for the Beats Solo 2 headphones, they were among the top sellers on Target.com: hardly a surprise given shoppers can pick up the headphones in exchange for just $96.99, down from their regular asking price of $199.99.

Target.com’s top-selling item is the Nintendo Wii U gaming console.

Other notable findings:

  • The $249.99 55-inch Westinghouse TV was Target’s top selling TV.
  • Shoppers bought more than three million movies on Thanksgiving.
  • Top toys included LEGO, Barbie, Disney Princess and Star Wars, with Target alone accounting for nearly one-third of Star Wars toy sales for the day.
