If You Love It, Buy It Early – Stock Levels are Very Low This Holiday Season
We’re finding that manufacturers have cut back on products this year, likely because last holiday season was so dismal. Sadly, that means some of our most popular products are already sold out or close to it. To avoid disappointment, for anything that you must have under your tree for Christmas Morning, order early.
This isn’t just for our site or our manufacturer’s, we’re finding it across the board. We believe this is going to be the year of several hot gifts, instead of just one “Furbie”, because of high demand and low production numbers. We’re running across it in toys and electronics as well as clothing at some specialty retailers. Many are sold out now and will not have quantities available until January or later.
For us, this is unusual. We rarely have any of the Little Adventures costumes out of stock. Just the occasional medium size of the most popular Belle costume. this year, however, the following are sold out at the manufacturer’s level and only existing stock on hand is available.
