Tariffs threaten bargain land
The retailer warned that tariffs promised by the President-elect Donald Trump (up to 100% on all Chinese goods and up to 20% for all other countries) might make its products less affordable, as the company would have to pass on some extra costs to customers.

TARIFFS WILL BE USED BY CAPITALIST TO GOUGE CUSTOMERS...It's their business model.

While shopping for recliner, my son reminded me, “Don’t wait. Trump’s tariffs are gonna raise the price of everything. Including these Lay z boys chairs”

He’s right.

Prices are gonna soar.

I’m already hoarding coffee and buying clothes in preparation for the tariffs.

Oh! I had not even thought about how much phones will cost if we have trade wars with China. Almost all the cell phone components are made in China.

My perfectly serviceable I-phone 12 plus is in great shape but it’s 6 years old. Perhaps I should upgrade and keep this phone as a backup.

@evamarie @PurpleDragon @Madken65

Upgraded my 12 to 15. Big mistake. 12 much better in all aspects.

@evamarie @PurpleDragon @Madken65

Expected great advances with camera. Nope. In fact, I inexplicably miss shots because periodically it just doesn’t work.

Well, the camera not working correctly is simply unacceptable. Thanks for the heads up.
