Here s one example of how pretty much everything is getting more expensive: A toy that used to cost $25 is now priced at $28,000.
Premium Joy, based in Walnut, California, makes a variety of foam toys, including play mats, jigsaw puzzles and building blocks for kindergarten and elementary-grade kids. It sells them on its website and on Amazon.
One of its most popular toys is its Under the Sea-themed floor foam jigsaw puzzle. Pre-pandemic we sold as many as 5,000 to 6,000 of that puzzle every year, said Hassan Alnassir, the company s founder and owner.
Alnassir said the company is discontinuing production of the puzzle because it s become too expensive to manufacture and import the foam products from Taiwan.
