Explain why the "coin shortage" seems situational and intermittent.
Nevertheless, it seems like I can't find mini pretzels, except for one brand I hate.
Thicker pretzels, yes. But not thin ones. And it seemed like they disappeared abruptly in the last few weeks.
I've checked enough stores to wonder if it's regional or national.
- detaro 5y agoNot sure how you get to supply chain issues being imaginary? A supply chain problem doesn't necessarily mean "totally unavailable everywhere".
- perl4ever 5y ago>Not sure how you get to supply chain issues being imaginary? Not sure how you concluded that I think every reported instance is imaginary; that's definitely incompatible with my previous comment. The window pits weren't imaginary! >A supply chain problem doesn't necessarily mean "totally unavailable everywhere". I agree, but how do you tell the difference between something that happens all the time and nobody noticed a couple years ago outside of maybe a trade magazine about logistics, vs. something that is new and different?
- ouchjars 5y agoEven if it is "imaginary", there's a positive feedback loop between the belief that supply chain issues exist and changes in buying patterns.
