I thought everybody was buying 70 inch Tv's at Walmart with their 600 dollars worth of monopoly money?

[Grampa Dave]

Trump’s fault.

[ConservativeMind]

The sales were not that good this year,, as opposed to prior years.

Also, we all know how financially screwed we’ve been from COVID-19, and will be, under Biden.

[Berosus]

A lot of would-be shoppers probably got what they wanted in last summer’s looting and rioting.

[RckyRaCoCo]

Turn on, tune in, drop out....groovy, man.

Biden = Stagflation = Carter = Iran Hostages dirty wars.

Just wait until the Biden economy takes full effect.

[Caipirabob]

Creepy pedo-Joe’s dark winter has begun.

Economy? Not participating.

[griswold3]

After the election, wise people aren’t spending money. They’re preparing for Biden/Harris or should i say Obama 2.0

[Codeflier]

The beginning of the constant “unexpected” bad news month after month.

[avital2]

people had time on their hands - and shopped way in advance.

[Little Pig]

The media is perpetually surprised by “unexpected” downturns under Leftists, and of “unexpected” upturns under Republican administrations.

Other than food and gas, the only items I have been purchasing for the last 2 months are shiny and make a very distinct (and beautiful) ping when struck. We are quickly moving toward a time when we’ll realize just how useless is much of the crap we have been groomed to covet.

[Peter W. Kessler]

No major purchases for us, no expensive vacations, no new cars, no new electronics for us.

We’ll be on a survival footing for the next four years.

We’ll keep up with charitable donations until they’re no longer tax-deductible.

We will not contribute one cent to a “growing” economy.

We’ll be on strike.

Well, apparently Amazon is still flying high. I called my post office two days ago, trying to find out why I hadn't received any updates on my tracking info, for a package I'd mailed 8 days before. I live in central NY State. I sent a package to my son who lives just north of Indianapolis. It's a 16 hour trip. Priority mail packages to him have been taking 2 weeks to arrive. A package I sent to him the week before took 10 days to get from here to the USPS distribution center in Rochester, NY. Rochester is 2 1/2 hours from me.

The postal clerk I spoke to told me that the reason for slow deliveries is because they are being swamped by packages from Amazon. I took that to mean that the postal service is processing Amazon packages before all others, even Priority packages. I told him that prioritizing Amazon packages over others wasn't acceptable, since it's my tax dollars that go to the postal service, and pay the salaries of the people who work there. He never attempted to correct my assumption that Amazon was getting priority treatment. I ended my call telling him that the postal service claims delivery delays are being caused because of COVID, and shortage of employees, but that it seems the post office has more than enough employees to deliver junk mail to you.

Unexpectedly my aunt fanny. The subtext here is now that we have biteme everone will go out on their unicorn and buy a pantry full of skittles and the “experts” ate wondering why that didn’t happen.

[polymuser]

Maybe buying gold and silver instead?

[wildcard_redneck]

Most Americans instinctively know that the shit is going to hit the fan. We are now ruled by openly marixist lunatics and things are going to get worse, far worse.

Here is what to expect:

• The dollar is going to experience massive devaluation. Buy and stk up on staples now.
• The power grid is going to become extremely unreliable and blackouts common.
• Prostitution is going to explode, women buy slutty dresses, outfits, and condoms while you still can.
• Get a government job now if you can because they ever pay anyone off.
• Stock up on liquor, buy or build stills for alcohol, hydroponics and seeds for marijuana, and learn how to grow magic mushrooms for sale and barter.
• Stock up on OTC veterinary antibiotics because healthcare rationing will be a thing.
• Buy junk silver coins.
• Dicide which pets that you are going to eat first. Learn how to butcher zoo animals.
• Learn to clean your behind with water out of a squeeze bottle because toilet paper will be a luxury.
• Buy gardening supplies.

[TexasGunLover]

Our sales were up over 140% over 2019.

[tet68]

Unexpectedly? Really?
