Ordered Serena shades on the 31st, and the same shades were +12% more expensive today.

I'm glad I got in under the wire. Those things were expensive.

Ooh they had to really contort themselves to avoid referring to tariffs lol.

They probably don’t want to say the T word for fear of Trump and the MAGAs attacking them. Prices are just going to mysteriously climb for “reasons.”

Edit: words are hard.

More importantly if they say the price increase is exclusively due to tariffs and then they get overturned, then people will expect prices to go back down.
