You know what time it is: The holiday season has officially arrived. There could be some challenges for shoppers due to the COVID-19 pandemic impacting supply chains. However, this doesn’t mean there won’t be any quality gifts as there are several physical and digital presents consumers can enjoy and will never go out of stock.
“There is a triple whammy facing consumers this shopping season: higher prices, limited quantities, and some empty store shelves from earlier sales that have since ended,” says Edgar Dworsky, a consumer advocate, who blamed shipping delays and inflation for the challenges, per USA Today. “There are always shortages of the year’s hot toys or tech items, but all these factors make it worse this year.”
