Betty Cracker made a comment this morning that is along the lines of what I have been thinking.
What should we be purchasing now and what should we stocking up on because of the coming tariff and supply chain issues?
I don’t really pay attention to what comes from which countries, so I am hoping the BJ hive mind will know!
I bought a new MacBook Air M4 (that I love!) so probably yes on buying computers now?
I replaced my ridiculously old Apple Airport wireless system that I have had since before 2009. So yes on other electronics, yes?
Vehicles?
I really don’t want to be stocking up on what was needed for the last crisis (Covid) if what will likely be hard to get this time is completely different.
For Covid it was:
- Toilet paper
- Paper towels
- Hand sanitizer
- Food
- Cash in case the economy collapsed.
Beyond that, t’s all a blur for me. What else was hard to get, and what will be hard to get because of the tariffs ? What’s going to be an issue this time that wasn’t last time?
Maybe let’s stick to the topic on this post so we can use it for reference?
