Americans will likely have to pay more at the supermarket counter within the coming days while higher prices on everything from sneakers to furniture to cars could be felt in a matter of weeks following President Trump’s tariffs rollout, economists and industry experts told The Post.

Trump’s announcement on Wednesday triggered fears of a global trade war and sent stocks on Wall Street cratering – stoking economic uncertainty and leaving consumers with questions about which products to buy before they get sticker shock.

“The 10% across-the-board tariffs begin Saturday, while the higher reciprocal tariffs against the nation’s largest trading partners go into effect Wednesday.”

Not for a while The Finnish are trying to beat the tariffs as well.

It won’t. Cause you can have mine too! I’ll stick with my Jellied Pigs feet and PA Dutch scrapple.

And eggs might stay the same, but balut is sure to get higher! And casu martzu will be out of reach!

LOL! It will still make it’s way here by Christmas….
Sounds like an article to just create hysteria and will be used as an excuse for stores to raise their prices when they never bring prices down no matter what.

Avocados, bananas, coffee, among items

[DAC21]

Jellied eels from the UK are going to skyrocket!

Not to mention spotted dick.

Thee was a time that avocados were an unknown. I had my first one a couple years ago. Very bland...rather have a peach...something with actual flavor.

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

Probably Olive oil, coffee, Sardines.

[goodnesswins]

We eat avocado almost every day...add salt and or garlic powder...yum...plus healthy

[goodnesswins]

Like peaches, too

[lightman]

Never thought of putting garlic powder on avocado but now I’m going to give that at try!

[nopardons]

Spotted Dick is a very good dessert; however, it is NOT exported!

OTOH...Twinings tea will probably go up in price, as will Carr's crackers, but oh well..."it won't break the bank", so to speak, and I'll buy both anyway.

Better get your 1 dollar temu stuff. It will be 2 dollars soon.
