Debating waiting for the sale next month or stocking up now

What are y'alls thoughts on this? I feel like the prices will probably go up even further by then and am wondering if I should just stock up now with the 10% as opposed to risking the prices going up significantly more by sale time and coming out more expensive even with 20% off.
Anyone more in-the-know about the inflation/supply chain issues have a better gauge on it?

Thanks for such a detailed background. Sounds like price increases are incoming, might be good to do this a few weeks before any planned sale rather than jacking up the RRP on the day or day before the sale.

We absolutely will not do any changes in the few days before the sale. We have a much better system now, which tracks and calculates costs in real time based on shipping changes and assessed duties. The issue before was our system was not agile enough to quickly factor in rapid increases in shipping and tariffs/duties. Those charges can be hidden a lot of the time, since we get billed at a later date with things grouped together. We have a completely new program and process for knowing in real time exact costs on everything. So we won't have to scramble again.
