This is a story of either a newfound mastermind or a very young shopaholic.

According to Wall Street Journal, Ashlynd Howell -- a determined six-year-old of Little Rock, Arkansas -- sneakily unlocked her mother's phone with her thumb while the unsuspecting mother was soundly asleep on a couch. The little girl opened up the Amazon app to purchase $250 worth of her own Christmas gifts.

Howell's parents received "13 order confirmations for Pokemon items" and thought they were hacked. However, Howell came forward proudly to her parents noting she was indeed "shopping". 


The parents could return all except four items which they told their little genius that Santa will bring for her. It all worked out perfectly!
