All types of items are getting more expensive and now the tariffs are prompting the experts to suggest parents buy toys for Christmas sooner rather than later.
The CEO of the Toy Association (yes, that is a real thing) told the “New York Times” earlier this week that, because of tariffs, the industry is facing "a frozen supply chain that is putting Christmas at risk." Yesterday, it even appeared that President Trump acknowledged that. He told reporters after a cabinet meeting, "maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple of bucks more."
Not surprisingly China produces 80-percent of toys sold in the U.S. and 90-percent of all Christmas goods. Are you tempted to shop early or have you started? Let us know in the FB comments.
