For a country that's simultaneously in the middle of two wars, a pandemic, and a serious recession, most of the population are really quite relaxed. Or obsessing over something completely different, of course.

I've been noticing it mostly in bookshops and craft/art supplies shops - both businesses that tend to keep a large range of stock nobody needs very often. So I suspect what they've been doing is letting their inventory run down and only restocking the more popular items.

I've heard artsy friends (both locally and in the US) discussing the same thing. The stuff they buy regularly is still stocked at their favourite stores, but esoteric stuff that they might buy on a whim is mostly gone.
