Stickers sell for at least twice the suggested retail price of 150 pesos ($1) a pack.Natacha Pisarenko/Associated Press 8. Argentina is facing a new crisis: a shortage of World Cup stickers. Every four years, soccer fans around the globe fall hard for the World Cup and its palm-size collectible stickers, known in Argentina as figuritas. This year, however, [they are booming like never before](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlIybHP0TraHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8xMC8wNi9zcG9ydHMvc29jY2VyL3BhbmluaS13b3JsZC1jdXAtZmlndXJpdGFzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMjEwMDcmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9NzQwNzEmbmw9ZXZlbmluZy1icmllZmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTA5MzgzJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpjPMehQGONUMe5Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~). Prices have soared, counterfeits have flooded the market, and the stickers are exceedingly difficult to find. The culprit is a confluence of supply-and-demand issues, including a domestic inflation crisis and a surge of expectations that Argentina’s team could contend for the trophy later this year. The country’s government, which is battling sky-high inflation and an increasingly fractious society, recently tried to intervene — only to retreat when its efforts were mocked as a waste of resources. Stacey Cramp for The New York Times 9. Catching peak foliage will be trickier this year. A trip to see the brilliant fall leaves will require some planning to choose the best time.

Peak colors in places like Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and northern New York will come late, in mid- to late October. Parts of Oregon and Washington will reach their splendor before the end of the month. And from Missouri to Illinois to eastern Kentucky, the bright colors will actually linger longer than usual, holding past the first week of November. A trip to the Museum of the City of New York and a night cap at Pebble Bar are among the stops in this week’s 36 Hours.Karsten Moran for The New York Times 10.
