Dollar stores are all over my very red county (60% rep/40% Dem). I can't remember the last time I was in one of them, but I can see how this will impact "them". 🤷🏽♀️
#FAFO is gonna hit the gullibles who voted for the Con everywhere they shop. Walmart has also signaled future price hikes. But hey, they "owned the libs" while literally cutting off their nose to spite their face
Please. The small businesses that people don’t bother to support will be the first victims. The dollar stores are making billions and will continue to do so.
Yeah, you're probably right. My comment was more to the fact that the voters who voted for this are going to be the most affected. Those in the cities have numerous choices for shopping. Rural communities, not so much. In many of those communities, dollar stores are the ONLY option. Sucks for them.
Where else are they gonna go? Drive 2 more hours away for groceries cause Walmart and the dollar store are the only shops of that kind within 100mi, what about gas possibly being over $5/gallon by that point? Are they gonna order groceries to be delivered using their DSL modems?
Sounds like a net loss for them! Damned if they, and damned if they don't. I live in a rural area, has a Wal-Mart, that I loathe, but I am often in the cities, so I do my shopping then.
I don't think so. Small businesses have vanished because of dollar store/tree/family tree/dollar general. Because they get their stuff cheaper from China. If there's anything good coming out of this is that maybe they will disappear and small businesses will thrive again after trump
Small businesses aren’t surviving now, before the tariffs. Hotbeds of retail activity have now been converted to restaurants, salons, and workout places — Amazon-proof. Lots of small businesses get things manufactured in china etc. Most people won’t pay for stuff made in their own countries.
I know, because of dollar trees etc. They killed the competition with low prices. Small businesses didn't survive that. Now the dollar trees etc is going to go out of business because of the tariffs
Dollar Tree ONLY makes billions because they can buy millions of pieces of cheaply made garbage they import from China and other places that use borderline slave labor. They're the ones that are going to get hurt the most.
They make billions because people buy their crap. More happens in China than crappy cheap products though. Better products in humane factories in China are a thing. Tech. People will still buy the crap because if it goes up 100% it’s still $2.
The point is that they can buy in bulk lots of a couple million pieces. Their whole business model is selling cheap crap made in countries that can make cheap crap.
Wow it’s almost like consumers in America will suffer the most from these tariffs and not the people in the country they are placed on. All Trump has to do is say that’s not how it works and that’s that. These people eat it up. It’s literal drone behavior and it’s sad.
Dollar Tree will go out of business. But it's not a shock that the Right lacks any forethought or compassion for the working class or the poor since they don't even understand basic economics.
Tariffs will cause other countries not to ship stuff in then American companies can raise their prices. Thats what tariffs always do. Consumers will get screwed royally but hey, a lot of Dems didn’t think it was worth their effort to vote so screw them let them suffer.
