It’s been a tough couple of years for the country. Families are just beginning to feel the effects of rising prices. This Thanksgiving is predicted by MSNBC to be the most expensive in history and CNBC says “Shoppers should expect fewer discounts, longer shipping times and limited inventory at stores” as supply chain woes impact stores during the biggest shopping cycle of the year.
But, we say, turn that frown upside down! We compiled a list of the best, cheapest kids gifts for Christmas 2022!
