Retail sales were up 2.1% year over year in the first quarter of this year and consumer spending jumped in February and March. Watch the video above to learn more about why prices will likely remain high.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s no secret that retailers are cracking down on returns.</p>
<p>In 2023, 81% of U.S. retailers implemented pay-to-return policies in some capacity. Amazon, Macy&#8217;s, T.J.Maxx, Walmart and Staples all rolled out changes to their established return policies. That may look like shrinking return windows, charging for some returns, or in some cases simply telling shoppers to &quot;keep it&quot;</p>
<p>Shoppers racked up more than $5 trillion worth of retail sales in the U.S. last year, according to the National Retail Federation. About 14.5% of those sales were returned. That equates to an enormous value in returned goods: $743 billion in 2023 alone.</p>
<p>&quot;Most of the returns that come back cost up to 40% of the original retail price to put that item back on the shelf,&quot; said Robert Overstreet, Iowa State assistant professor of supply chain management. &quot;There&#8217;s no guarantee they can sell it for what they originally asked for it, so they&#8217;re losing money on both ends.&quot;</p>
<p>The recent changes&#8230;</p>

<p>Lacking enough or the right experience, skills, credentials and/or education ranked second among the biggest barriers for jobseekers in 2022, according to McKinsey &#038; Co. The cooling labor market has made it more difficult to find a job. Kory Kantenga, Senior Economist at LinkedIn, said that is felt acutely in the entry-level job market.
