I have heard this past month that summer will be terrible for inflation and food prices especially. I noticed some things I don’t buy often like hairspray has increased at least $1.50 for the brand and size I use. Which makes me happy that I’ve let my hair grow longer and don’t use hairspray often now. Something I also have heard is that Sam’s Club has an overstock of goods right now due to cargo container ships being allowed to unload. They don’t have warehouse space for it and are shipping it to stores. They want to have a fast turnover to make room for more so they may do some good discounting of prices. Some of the stuff is already nearly out of date from what customers have said (watched a You Tube video about it, one woman said she was given free products and not sample-sized either, full-sized items). So now would be a good time to stock up there. And they say when it’s sold out they probably won’t be restocking that stuff. Most of the cargo ships headed this way only have about 1/4 the normal load now.
I went to Sam’s Club in my city on Thursday and they were stocking all over the store in the early afternoon. And stacking stuff high, I’ve never seen such high stacks of merchandise there. I am sure what they said in that video is true.
