Thanksgiving items are running out of stock, prices are shooting upward, and retailers are cutting down on promotions, according to a recent market analysis report from IRI, a research firm that tracks retail sales in the United States.

The continuing supply chain issues are impacting stores across the country with supermarkets and stores making adjustments with what’s available, and consumers rushing in and purchasing early on to ensure enough supply before shelves turn empty.
