A severe drought is affecting the #PanamaCanal.
Not a good sign for #supplychains or your #holidayshopping
One of the wettest countries in the world is having one of its driest seasons on record.
At the Panama Canal, where freshwater serves as the lifeblood for its lock-driven operations, the lack of abundant rainfall is leading to lower water levels and putting a squeeze on a critical international shipping artery

It’s never too early for a retailer to start thinking about the holiday season, although this year, they may want to delay thinking about it a while longer. That’s because prognosticators are predicting a lackluster holiday sales season in 2023. #HolidayShopping #Ecommerce

This one took me a second. I must be more tired than I had thought.

80lb of groceries is possible in the #biketrailer , but I ain't fast pulling it.

When you drive to far-flung suburbia to rent your son a clarinet for Christmas and the store accidentally gives you an oboe. And then you have to drive all the way back.

@ShiannonC @hfentonmudd @earthmothering9 We decided last week that Monday was our last day to get mail from our post office box at the medium size shops, and yesterday early morning was the last run to the local shops for any supplies.

Whatever we don’t have now, we don’t have. The mail can wait until the post office opens again, and we have food enough.

I am not putting either of us - both #Autistic and with #CPTSD - through any more #HolidayShopping awfulness!

I’ve reached the “oh no” point in holiday shopping and will now be printing out a photo of one of my child’s gifts, putting it in a box and wrapping it, along with a note stating that Santa will deliver it sometime between December 28 and January 5.

As people rush to finish #holidayshopping, they ought to be aware that a good history of transactions and feedback does not confirm that an #ecommerce seller account is legit.

There is a large #underground market on the deep and #darkweb for "aged accounts"--opened and cultivated by one actor, and then sold to another for use in #scamming and #fraud. We discovered that this activity is on the rise: there has been a nearly 240% increase in the monthly average of underground posts mentioning aged #Amazon accounts.

Nan: "If you're out shopping today, be nice to the retail workers. It's not their fault you waited for Mary's water to break to go out shopping."

I wonder what #Jesus would think of his birthday being used as an excuse for rampant consumerism...

You may be seeing ads on social media for sites selling "real luxury goods" for cheap. Watch out! A criminal case from Australia shows that crooks are stealing people's identities & buying luxury goods to launder the stolen money. In the end, you may be paying the price for the luxury "bargain" you're buying online.

Yesterday’s Instacart order: 2 half gallons of egg nog, 1 quart oat milk egg nog, 2 containers oat milk whipped cream, 2 boxes frozen Belgian waffles, mustard. I’m sure the Instacart shopper had some questions. #holidayshopping

Tomorrow is the LAST day to order to ensure Xmas delivery! https://jalexandergreenwood.com/shop #BooksForAll #holidayshopping
