Pumpkins are in short supply, get yours before your hopes are squashed.

With Halloween just a couple of weeks away, many might start to notice some shortages of festive gear when shopping for the occasion.

According to experts, this Halloween, the scariest thing you might see will be empty shelves and a shortage of spooky staples like the traditional pumpkin.
The pumpkin shortage is attributed to extreme weather and shipping delays making it harder to distribute the gourds to their intended locations.
