Receivables [Abstract]  
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLEAccounts receivable are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts of $1,208, $2,494 and $1,446 as of July 1, 2022, October 1, 2021 and July 2, 2021, respectively. The increase in net accounts receivable to $103,244 as of July 1, 2022 from $71,321 as of October 1, 2021 is attributable to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business. The determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where specific collection concerns about a receivable exist, a reserve is established to value the affected account receivable at an amount the Company believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes allowances for doubtful accounts based on historical experience of bad debts as a percent of accounts receivable outstanding for each business segment. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after collection efforts have been exhausted. The Company typically does not require collateral on its accounts receivable.
