Have you heard about people in the United States rushing to stores to buy things before prices go up? It’s happening right now! 🛍️
This is because of something called tariffs. Tariffs are like taxes that countries add to products coming from other countries. When tariffs go up, things like cars, TVs, food, and even beauty products can become more expensive. 💸
Many people are worried that prices will rise soon, so they’re shopping now to save money. It’s a bit like a big game of ‘Beat the Price Increase’! 🏃♂️
Lois Adams, who lives in New York, shared her feelings. She said, “I think he’s just making enemies, and I trust him not. And I think he’s making a mess of everything.” She feels unhappy about how things are going.
Another person, a store worker named Amelia Guilford, said, “I believe that everything is going to go up, because at the end of the day America consists of outside.” She thinks prices will rise because the U.S. gets many things from other places.
This situation has got people talking. What do you think? If prices were going up, would you rush to buy things too? 🤔
