Panic Buying Hits Stores Again As Americans Can Feel Hard Times Are Ahead

Economists are sounding the alarm about the biggest price increases in decades, and according to new reports, that's causing hundreds of thousands of Americans to panic buy essential goods and upgrade old cars and appliances before businesses mark up their prices in 2025.

In a few weeks time, retailers, automakers and several other companies will be facing higher import costs that are expected to be passed along to U.S. consumers in the form of higher prices at stores.

To get ahead of the new hikes, bargain hunters are stocking up on multiple items before they start costing a lot more in the coming months.

By now, you probably realized that inflation is just not coming down. Standing at nearly 3%, the U.S. Consumer Price Index is still considerably higher than it needs to be.

I came across your channel through this
video-
case studies are incredibly valuable, and I'm
eager
to see more in the future! Building wealth
involves
establishing routines, like consistently
setting aside
funds at regular intervals for smart
investments.

I'm 70 yrs old and my kids will see the results. That's what it is all about right now. My dad lived to 96 so I told my 58 year old sister to get some. I've been in XRP for 5 months and able to accumulate 89, 000 XRP.

No panic buying here. Sounds more like fear mongering to me.

Think about why they want gas propane stoves removed cause they last a very long time. Remember the old fridge with handle like a slot machine gone lasted too long. Cars built with steel lasted. Gone. Now plastic crap. This is on purpose

People's greed is worse than ever....

Manufacturing in America is dead unless the peasants are willing to work for a dollar an hour. Corporations simply won't waste money building new factories.

I went to Michael's today to buy a gift. I got to the register with some chineese made LED lights that I thought were $10. They rang up $49! I told the lady, "thats crazy, no way, I dont want them."

I just received a letter from the Kohls store that uses Capital One for their credit card. The new rate will be 30.74%.
Rates like that used to be called usury and were criminal. Now it's business as usual.

DEPRESSION IS HERE..;GOING TO BE LONG AND HARD.

Dude should have kept his 2010 vehicle. Newer vehicles can spy on you and many are starting to require subscriptions just to use features that should bw free, like high beams.

I am a senior and need my check for rent and food. Don't have the money to stock up ❤❤

Success usually comes to those who are too busy looking for it. If you're willing to do business or become an investor then you will be rich!

It's time to note a few things:
All this stuff your hearing on this video is being twisted.
If your buying a new car because your existing car is 10 years old, rethink this. Older cars are built better then New.
Not Everything is going to be under a tariff. this is a scare tactic.
It's not just tariffs. the Panama canal Costs more to go through... just recently announced.
China has been charging more a year before this Video came out.
Listen carefully to the prices this announcer is giving you as examples.
A lot of people are going to Pawn shops and selling items due to $$ issues. Pawn shops are a deal.
Silicone Tariff Rate?.. WTF @ 9:18
All this stuff is Speculation. When they say May or Could, doesn't mean it WILL!
Don't get Bamboozelled

America is currently plagued by the hydra-headed evil duo of inflation and recession. The worst part about this recession is that consumers are racking up credit card debt. In December alone, credit card debt went up 36% while rates have doubled in a year. Inflation is so high that consumers are literally taking debt for basic life necessities. Collapse has indeed begun..

I think we've been heading to a great depression 2.0. Everything is expensive but wages have been diminished by inflation. My husband made 25k less in 2024 from lack of work in construction.

Right, and you forgot to mention the big strike at the ports. That's about to come as well. You forgot to mention that that strike is not over yet. They're about to restart that strike soon.

[josephszot]

Oh well, I'll just keep buying food and necessary items. No superfluous stuff (basically nothing) save hunker down no travel, nada!
