AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
At the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting in Omaha on May 1, 2026, the “Berkshire Bazaar of Bargains” filled a 20,000‑square‑foot hall with fan‑favorite merchandise—from Warren Buffett‑themed gear and See’s Candies chocolate coins to special‑edition items from subsidiaries such as BNSF Railway, NetJets, GEICO and Brooks Running.

Highlights included Squishmallows celebrating Abel’s Canadian roots and love of hockey, See’s Candies displays with themed chocolate treats, and a Brooks Running 2026 special‑edition shoe, with nearly 2,000 shareholders slated to run a “Invest in Yourself” 5K the following morning.
