This seems pretty important to crowdsource and talk about, so I’m gonna go ahead and risk violating the no politics rule from a few days ago, because I don’t see a better community to ask this. My defense for it not “being politics” is, I’m asking you to keep it to purchasing decisions and how the details of how the tariffs are likely to work, as opposed to who did what. This thread has the potential to save people lots of money if it gets big!

Tariffs are gonna make things more expensive for Americans; what are you planning on buying now instead of later, or stockpiling a little of?

    I have very little to do with the US and said tariffs, so I’m not affected directly.

    In general though I try to be rational with big(ger) purchases - I research things for at least a week or two before buying (but more often it’s months) and try to maximise my use of what I buy.
