Lean inventory and just in time supply management for the win!
Yay, another COVID style supply chain apocalypse. This time brought on entirely by American conservatives and their lack of brain cells.
Buy exactly ZERO gifts for your conservative family members for their bdays and Xmas and make sure to tell them it's because of the new Trump Tax.
I don't think you'll be able to buy anything for anybody lol.
This is a Depression Train coming right for us
Glad I've already been living as frugally as possible for the past several years.
Question for the class: aside from the obvious like computers and technology, what category items are we expecting to be hit hardest? Or to ask pointedly, what items that we NEED might be affected?
Baby care items are going to get hit hard.
Clothing, but, tbh, I expect that need to be flexible. I personally could ride out a few years just repairing my items. Pants are what I expect to run out of first--the bottoms give out and that is beyond my repair skills.
I have a few more bags of coffee than I normally would, because caffeine makes things better and we don't grow that here. I have a bit of chocolate.
I really don't know what will be in short supply. I didn't want to hoard stuff I won't use, but I don't want to run out of stuff I need.
we dont grow cacoa either, tropical climates grow our vanilla orchids, cacoa, and coffee beans, avacadoes, pineapples too. and vanilla is notoriously hard to grow, due to its biology(because you have to hand pollinate each flower as the natural pollinator is probably in its native range is either extinct or extirpated and not available in where the vanilla grows, and the vanilla has been mostly self-pollinating.
The ones you don’t think of, naturally.
Excited to revisit the discourse on price gouging for the next few months.
There is no price gouging in U.S.A.
The Orange King has invited you to Lake Gitmo.
if you need, or might need tech in the near future, BUY IT NOW. not just because of the price hike, but because there won't be anything left to buy
I voted Harris in 2024, don't assume what you truly don't know.
I didn't vote for this.
Neither did I but 79 million idiots did, and 88 million didn't vote at all.
In a sense 167 million people wanted this shitshow so here we are.
Buy a gun, ammo, and canned goods. Form support groups with like minded people in your areas.
This summer is going to be a hootenanny of epic proportion.
lol stores are gonna start getting cleaned out on the regular. And they’re gonna stay empty.
Are we winning yet?
i heard the shore employees are going to lose thier jobs the moment it stays empty.
lol stores are gonna start getting cleaned out on the regular
Nah. We've already seen businesses implementing digital price tags for just this occurrence.
Your stores will stay stocked. You're just going to see merch doubling and tripling in price as inventory depletes.
Eventually, you'll walk into a store, see a single pair of jeans on the rack, and read a $1000 price tag on it because it's the last pair of that style in 20 miles.
Sounds like a scalpers wet dream
the toilet paper crisis will soon be on the scene again.
Unfortunately, it seems this needs to happen to wake people the fuck up.
Another article today about people literally having no concept of why the websites they're shopping on is suddenly way more expensive (and explicitly showing the tariff costs).
People are surprised by this, and many of them have literally never even heard the word "tariff" before.
especially chinese sites that deliver to usa.
And the illiterate yokels in 12 months time: "Tariff?! That sounds like one of them thar a-rab names!!"
Its also what the stores voted for. Almost every major corporation wanted Trump and heavily lobbied for him to get in. News outlets, grocery chains, retail stores, tech companies, every large corporation wanted this.
