They're probably trying to head off some complaints. The supply chain has been horrible and, based on complaints on on these forums, people don't remember that or expect retailers to pull their desired product out of the air. Nothing wrong with reminding people.

@hopi I would say as many times as we see empty spaces on the supermarket shelves or even spaces filled but with an excess of one kind of item instead of a variety.

Not much repetitive bothers me but that's quite certainly because the only real time I spend watching/listening is when I plan to shop and this week my shopping plans involve only groceries and a final decision on a new faucet for my kitchen sink. (I brought one home last week, but it's going back assuming I find different. Because of supply chain problems, the choices are limited. There are faucets, just not necessarily exactly what I want.)

I do not envy the hosts having to find something to say. They will be criticized if they repeat themselves, if they talk about anything someone doesn't want to hear, if they sip liquid, chew too loudly, etc. End of my rant for today. One of my resolutions for 2022 is to post no more than once a day. Hope it works better than some previous resolutions have!

@milleshops: I agree. Constant complaining about something.

@hopi

It isn't a threat....it is a factual certainty.

IMO, they shouldn't be selling items that are not ready to be shipped.

@millieshops They are paid very well to find things to say. They also get a lot of perks.
