Holiday Shortages
What? You haven’t started your Christmas Holiday shopping yet? You do know there are only 61 days until Christmas? You do know there will be shortages this year because of transportation issues?
There are solutions that will make your heart feel good as well as your pocketbook. The answer: Online shopping! Now, before you get riled and say “That only feeds China and the big box stores”, think again. Do you know who owns and operates many thousands of the Ebay Stores or Poshmark Closets? An individual, one person! He or She must order the inventory, take pictures, upload the items and wait for a sale. Then the shipping department (usually their spouse or kids) packages the item and ships it off. Pretty neat, huh?
This is not a lessen for online selling, just an idea to help you with your holiday gift giving. You may find the most unusual one-of-a-kind item that is the perfect gift for you to give. Most items are in the United States and ship quickly via USPS. The feel-good part is your support of a Small Business!
Happy shopping! Wishing you blessings for a safe and joyous holiday season!
