It's less than 100 days until we all sit around a socially distanced table and exchange gift of hand sanitizers and face masks while thinking back on what a weird year it has been for us.
But there are some concerns that the busy shops won't be busy and the overly packed shops might be lacking in stock when it comes to December. That is terrible news for the last minute Christmas Eve shoppers and could mean that even the more organised among us could be struggling to get gifts for their loved ones in time for the big day.
Speaking to Dermot & Dave, Duncan Graham from Retail Excellence Ireland explained some of the struggles that independent retailers across Ireland are dealing with and why we should be supporting local in the run up to December 25th.
