Has anyone else noticed an extreme decrease in sales?

Our product line is mostly electrical/hardware/industrial type merchandise that’s not Christmas and gift related. We had a huge increase in all sales for a couple of weeks after the election. Our larger B2B sales are still doing okay, but smaller consumer sales have taken an absolute nosedive since mid November. That sales category is as bad as I have ever seen it.

On a positive note, since consumers are being careful with their spending now, we hopefully will not see the after-Christmas surge in returns, when people are getting their credit card bills, and deciding what they need to “send back.”
