Nobody loves a Roomba quite like the people of Delaware.

From 2013 to 2014, the nation's "first state" has been the top consumer of robotic vacuums from online shopping hub eBay. The Internet retailer analyzed which items states purchase the most, finding the top 500 brands for each state and then boiling them down to general categories.

From there, eBay figured out which items shoppers buy on its site the most, in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Curious revelations abound, like the fact that firearms are the most popular in New York, even though the state has one of the toughest gun laws in America. North Carolina buys the most baby products (despite not having the highest birth rate -- that would be Utah), while the paranoid folks of Oregon buy the most security and surveillance items.
