So far, who are the winners and losers of the Cyber shopping holiday season?

To find out the answers to these questions and more, watch the video above.

Correction: An earlier version of this story stated that Nordstrom's website crashed on Cyber Monday. Although several retailers' websites did crash, Nordstrom's was not one of them.
