It looks like the "big item" that will be pushed this Christmas: the Ninja Foodi and similar kitchen-counter-top roasters and grillers.
We were at Belk yesterday -- one of the best all-around discount department stores out there. We love it. It's right out our back door. We can walk to it in less than five minutes, and it even has a "back door" that makes it that much closer, not having to walk all the way around to the front. LOL.
But there they were, just like those being advertised on television, quantities of the Ninja Foodie in all its various models and similar roasters by other companies. I have no idea if these are the same products with new marketing or if there really is something going on here.
The Foodi that we looked at, and the one advertised on television, regular price: $299.99. At Belk, $169.99. At Target, about a quarter-mile down the road selling the same time for $179.99. On-line, I see Kohl's is also selling them for $179.99.
There are so many models out there, it was hard to find the one I saw advertised, the one that flips up out of the way for easy storage on the countertop, but I believe it's this one. It must be. About the same price as advertised, but discounted to $229.99 at Bed Bath & Beyond:
Note that it's "top-rated" and you have to hurry: there's only "one left."
I can't make this stuff up.
By the way, our local Target had so many large flat-screen smart TVs, they were stacked in the clothing department. One starts to understand the supply chain shortage.
