Amazon kicked off the holiday shopping season with record sales over the post-Thanksgiving weekend, as the broader retail industry hopes a strong economy will spur historic consumer spending in the coming weeks.

The e-commerce giant recorded more sales on the Monday after the holiday — known as Cyber Monday — than any other day in its history, the company said in a statement on Tuesday. Amazon also said it had a record-breaking “Turkey 5,” a reference to the five shopping days between Thanksgiving and the following Monday.
