It can be a challenge finding the perfect gift for everyone on your list. Shopping can be intense. Well, here's one gift that so many people (who happen to live in Florida) want.
The group Rakuten performed a survey of shopping desires. Guess what topped Floridians' lists. The PlayStation 5 gaming console.
According to Sony's July earning report, production looks pretty good, but for some folks, it's still hard to find the item. “At this point in time, we have made no change to our 18 million unit sales forecast for PS5 hardware in FY22. But since we are seeing a recovery from the impact of the lockdown in Shanghai and a significant improvement in the supply of components, we are working to bring forward more supply into the year-end holiday selling season.”
Supply should be increasing as we get closer to Christmas. Do you have a PlayStation lover in your family? I know it's a popular gift, but I'm still trying to figure out why it might be so coveted by those of us who live in the Sunshine State.

Why The Fall Time Change Makes Roxanne So Happy
This is my favorite time of the year. Sure, the holidays are fun, and it's nice to feel cooler weather, but what really makes me so happy is being able to change the clocks.
If they pass this Sunshine Act, I'm going to be so angry. I feel like the politicians did NOTHING to figure out what is actually good for your body and good for you sleep cycles when they came up with this bill. Americans STRUGGLE when it comes to getting enough rest and shoving us into year-round Daylight-Saving Time would only make things worse.
But all seriousness aside, I shall share with you five reasons I love to fall back.
1. My kids will go to bed earlier.
Try putting a kid to bed when the sun is still out. It's impossible. An earlier sunset means you can get your kids all cozy and in bed sooner, and you can have an extra hour to yourself to prepare for the day ahead.
2. It's safer for kids when they are walking to school or the bus stop.
We were off from the show today, and I had a chance to walk my daughter to school. The sun was not even out yet. This makes it dangerous for kids because drives can't see them as they are rushing off to work. The sun didn't rise today until 7:45 A.M. Next week it will rise around 6:45, and it will be easier to get the kids out of bed in the morning.
3. Standard time is better for our bodies.
You can read here to find out just how bad it is for our bodies when we switch the clocks in March. But in essence, the further off kilter you are from rising and going to bed WITH the sun, the worse it is for your sleep cycles and health, in general.
4. You can start doing "dark time" activities at 5:30.
People get excited about "Daylight Saving" because you can stay out later doing daytime activities. But what about things that are more fun at night?...Like looking at Christmas lights or going to parties. You can kick those off even earlier because it will be dark!
5. And of course, we GAIN an hour.
Who in their right mind wants to lose an hour? That's NEVER fun. I will enjoy all 3,600 extra seconds!
