Are we getting close enough yet to the hyperinflation stage of Nazi Germany for experts to consider this an issue?

But Trump told me that they won’t do this and he’s watching them!! How could they go against daddy Trump! 🤣

Here it comes.

Walmart, the Walton family billionaires, publically blaming Trump's tariffs doesn't leave much room for Trump, MAGA, or Fox to shift the blame. I suppose they'll still try, but I think even MAGA will understand the truth, though they may not admit it.

If they weren't cowards, they'd add how much is added to the cost due to the tariffs on the price tag.

Hey! wanna play a fun game? find a few items in walmart and take note of their price, then take note of the new tariff price, now the fun part, after the tariffs are over see if the price goes back to the pre tariff price (be fair adjust for inflation) .

Spoiler if the items still sell at the tariff price they will only go down a fraction of the tariff increase.

"Eat the tariffs" - As if companies like Walmart would love to make less profits just to please politics. Heck, they usually pay politicians to help them make more profits!

If they want to fix this, they should put a "Trump did that!" sticker by the new prices.

Wondering how much more of my life I'm going to have to live watching our society become less stable every single time Republicans gain control before Americans put 2 and 2 together.

Based on the last 10 years, I'm assuming it just isn't going to happen.

Oh they want to price gouge now that everyone is excited for the radioactive shrimp

THEY BETTER NOT! I'LL BE WATCHING AND LET'S JUST SAY THAT THEY WON'T APPRECIATE A CALL FROM ME (BUT IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THEY'LL TAKE IT)! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

They also jack up their local prices based on need.

When the flood hit Texas, a 5gal water cost 17$.

Two weeks later, back to the normal price of 7.99$

I just can't accept that employee owned grocery stores like WinCo are somehow keeping prices down but big grocery stores like Kroger are just skyrocketing.

Prices on many items are literally 200% the cost of the same exact item at WinCo.

They don't pay their employees more so where is that extra 100% profit going?

“Rolling up prices”

Cool I'll just shop literally anywhere the fuck else.

Honestly, this might be the one company the Trump administration cant silence over this. Dear god, we are all depending on Walmart to stop him.

What do they mean "on a week to week basis"? We've been shown, based on their television adverts in the last decade, that the little yellow price ball does that all the time. Were those commercials fake news?! /s

It’s earning season, the numbers are in, and at the end of the day, the execs are more afraid of Wall Street than Trump.

Many more price are finally going to start reflecting tariffs in the states. The big companies are no longer holding back.

At least there will be lots of new minimum wage jobs for those that have to re-price all the inventory on a weekly basis.

Get your "I did that!" stickers ready

There is a local organic grocery store a block away that I’ve stopped at for basics here and there and nothing else really due to it being more expensive, but their prices haven’t changed so now it has become the cheaper option for most things. Check out your local organic grocery stores.

I don’t advocate stealing in general but if it’s Walmart and you’re not using violence against the employees I ain’t mad atcha

Stopped going to Walmart because prices were comparable everywhere else. Or, the price was slightly lower but the quality was garbage.

Nice! Is MAGA happening yet?

🤡

Grab the pitchforks and torches, if you can afford them...

The Walmart in my town is weird as fuck because it barely has any food in it. Like MAYBE 10% of their floorspace is foodstuffs. And it used to be okay because there was an employee-owned grocery store in town. Well, that grocery store chain apparently got bought out recently, and not only are they raising their prices faster than Walmart, they also can't keep the shelves stocked because the people doing the ordering don't work in the stores. I'm actually thinking I might have to start driving an hour to the nearest WinCo if prices keep skyrocketing like this.

As kids, my mom used to send us to the corner store (literally the opposite corner). you Waited in line and when your turn came up you would ask for 1kg of sugar or whatever. If you forgot you had to wait on the side. The guy at the counter owned the store and he would go get you a Kg of sugar in a bag from a bigger sack or a barrel. He would weigh it for you. Then he would calculate how much it was based on his own price per kg.

Just saying, things could get a heck of a lot worse than having to ask the teller for condoms and a razor pack.
