One retailer “blasted out an email last week — subject line: ‘Beat the Tariff Price Hike’ — one of several brands urging customers to buy now.” 🤡 @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/08/30/l...

Many PNW car dealerships add “no tariff price increase” in TV ads. These are LOCAL, not huge audiences but hope it helps wake folks up.

Pees me off that everyone has to go through the ridiculous shenanigans of the American "legal" system again. A US court has deemed that trump illegally used emergency powers to enact massive import taxes But everybody in the WORLD knows that SCOTUS will simply rubber stamp whatever trump does.

tell me you didn't have to pay 2018 tariffs without telling me because if you had, you would have waited to see what would happen

I can not help but wonder if this is one of the reasons consumer spending has stayed strong.

Carl, happy holiday. Any initial thoughts about Friday’s court decision on tariffs?

The stupid thing is people will read the court ruling and think they are going away. Even if the Supreme Court rules they are illegal they will just pivot.

Wine imports and distributions have been sending buy now emails to their customers before Tariff increases kick in Sept 2nd. It’s gonna get ugly!

Usually when the economy begins to slow down, we see more sales and discounts. But with costs increasing, would you expect less discounts going forward or more?
