Good for you.? I hope everyone is boycotting US goods
?
They are predicting that by mid June, we are going to have lots of empty shelves and it is going to get worse as time goes by
And they things that we have will go up in?cost.
?
People are so stupid here.
They think just because it says made in the US that the tariffs won't affect it but it will.
Take that Florida orange...
ok....it is grown in the US but the packaging comes from another country....
Parts for the trucks that ship those oranges come from other countries...
The fertilizer they use to grow....
If all those things go up in price....yes, those oranges will go up in price....
Just about everything here is going to be affected....if it even comes into the country.
?
If you need a new phone....charger....anything Like that.....you had better get it now.
I have heard that a new iphone could cost over $3000.00

Here in the states, boycotting?certain businesses is working. Their?revenues are going down.? It is 100% affecting their?sales.
I am just one of millions who are doing the boycotting.
?
For now.....even if it costs me a few?$$ more....
I will continue the boycott those businesses when I can.? Can't always be avoided but when I can.....I don't buy from them.
?
I just bought a desk chair.? I got it at Staples.....and it was cheaper?than a comparative chair on Amazon.
But that was because one of Shawns friends works there....
And he delivered it
Even without his discount.....the chair was only $6.00 more than one on Amazon
?
Kaylee buys a ton on Amazon.....
We all share?my account.? When I go to my orders.....it is all for her.

I used to stock up but I don't anymore. I only buy what? hope I can eat but even that is becoming less. I am finding I buy it and try it and give the rest to hubby, saving him money but costing me a lot. I am best sticking to fruits and veggies altho my toasted tomato sandwiches have settled well.
Most of the produce I have been buying is not from the US like it always was. I find people are avoiding the US products. Strawberries were dirt cheap this week but they sat rotting in the bins, no one is buying US. ?
I still buy from Amazon but not as much as in the past. Hubby ordered alka seltzer this week and it was $3.00 cheaper than in any store here and its delivered that day or the next right to the door. I just ordered knee hi nylons because much cheaper than in the store. Walmart wanted $10 for one pair and i got 10 pairs for $10 on Amazon. I will never wear them all so if the kids need them for the wedding I have extras.
I don't go into the grocery stores like in the past I shop Amazon and Costco......lol

I was reading an article this morning that a bathing suit (on?some website...I forget which)?that cost $119.00 now will cost over $300.00 with the tariffs
?
Most countries that used to get things from the US have found the same things elsewhere so this is going to affect the US for years and years.
Even if the turd brain gets rid of the tariffs.....no one is going to import from us anymore.....which is hurting many many businesses.....
Businesses that will never recover.
?
I have 100% changed my way of buying.? I am trying to buy more local than from big chains and I am trying to avoid companies that support the turd.....
Can't avoid them 100% but my purchases from those companies has gone way down.....I seldom buy from Amazon anymore....
And walmart....I only get my prescriptions there.....I go in....pick them up and leave.? I do not shop there anymore
?
I do buy what I need but for some things....I have been buying 2 instead of 1.....
Like I needed laundry detergent so I bought 2 instead of 1 and tucked one away.??
I hope things change but I seriously doubt they will
?
Things will never be the same in my lifetime....things will never go back to "normal"
100 days and he has destroyed our way of life.
It is going to touch every single US resident at some point

?but we still have imports from the US but I think many retailers have found other sources for produce and many are just buying Canadian products. The grocery stores have Canadian? products listed on the shelves. I still buy what I need being as my eating is still so wonky but I do notice the produce I do buy is not from the US.

As I said....?
You are not going to see shortages
This is a US thing.....has nothing to do with Canada.
Life goes on normally for you.
?
It is only the US from the tariffs and trade wars the turd has started.
We have nothing (or very?little)?going out or in.....

There wouldn't be.? None of this affects you in Canada.
It is due to the turd tarriffs and the trade wars he has started
?
Nothing is coming in.?The major shipping ports on both coasts are empty.?
Countries have stopped trading with us.
?
The US is in big trouble.? Mainstream media is so not telling the truth about how things are.

To my knowledge there is no food shortages here at all. The shelves are filled to the top. ?

I want to buy some meats too. ? Want to get a freezer full so we will at least have food to eat and maybe share with those in need. ? ?We will have to wait and see. ? ?I am worried about food shortages.
