Local retail shops are seeing an increase in customers despite the impact that inflation is having on many big businesses.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — If you’ve shopped at any big retailer lately, then you’ve probably noticed a price increase on some items.
That’s something Heather Rynders, the owner of Fashion Exchange in Little Rock has noticed personally.
“It’s been so hard lately, everything is so extremely expensive,” said Rynders.
The reason behind the uptick in prices on some of your favorites items is because of inflation rates.
However, despite pandemic woes, Fashion Exchange isn’t suffering.
“We’ve lowered our prices, rather than raise them right now,” Rynders said.
Her consignment shop relies on donors rather than vendors, so increased prices across the board aren’t impacting her.
“The luxury of having a resale business is that we get to sell things at a better price,” Rynders said.
They’re not the only ones
