If you’re hosting a holiday celebration this year, waiting till the eleventh hour could leave you empty-handed. That’s because we’re experiencing massive global supply chain issues that are culminating in inventory shortages and delivery delays just in time to complicate the holiday season.
The supply chain crisis grew out of Covid-19 lockdowns, when our online shopping habits skyrocketed, and so did the demand for products. Most companies couldn’t keep up, and many are still short on resources. Yet the online shopping stampede shows no signs of slowing down.
So what’s the solution? Shop early. Some e-retailers are even offering amazing discounts to incentivize you to do so. The Home Depot is leading the charge on those early-bird sales, offering up to 25 percent off from now until November 3 (that's today!) on everything you need to serve up the perfect holiday soiree.
