Calling all bargain hunters…stores have too much stuff and will be cutting prices soon.  Large shipments of electronics, outdoor furniture, and loungewear that people wanted during the pandemic are finally coming in, two years late.  That means that retailers that can’t hold big items in their inventory will be slashing prices.  Rachel Wolfe, consumer trends reporter at the WSJ, joins us for where and when to look for these deals… just have to wait a little further into summer.

 

Next, there is a whole swath of young kids that have never known life without Covid.  Their formative years were spent masking and social distancing and the long-term effects remain unknown.  Studies and observations show that some kids are behind in speech, motor and social development and could need counseling, speech therapy and other support to adjust.  There is optimism in the resilience of young kids to adapt now that things are a little more back to normal and in some of the positive effects like spending more time with family.  Anna North, senior correspondent at Vox, joins us for how the pandemic affected the country’s youngest children.
