    After watching the tariff documentary from (of all channels) Gamers Nexus and Hyte’s pricing breakdown showing prices will actually balloon to closer to 300% of current MSRP I fully expect Dollar Tree to either become Five Dollar Tree or go out of business with a quickness.

    Mark my words: we’re gonna get updated images of 1980s soviet grocery stores with empty shelves. then he’ll visit moscow and revel at how well-stocked their shelves are. come on, y’all, we’ve been here before.
