Imagine all the ships that bring toys and clothes to stores, they might stop working because of a big argument.
If that happens, it would take longer for things to get to stores and the prices might go up too.
The people who work on the ships and the people who run the ports are trying to figure out a deal so the ships can keep going.
It's really important for everyone to have their gifts and toys for Christmas, so hopefully they can make a deal soon.
