Did you pay tariffs directly? No.
A company payed them and passed the cost to you, so the company will get the refund and keep it.
Also, don't even think that prices are going back to pre tarif levels.

We about to get paaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiddddd!
lol no, the corporations that paid the tax are getting paid, we wont get refunds.
I mean, the corporations didnβt pay it, we did, but yeah 100% itβs going to the corporations anyway.
Speak for yourself... I'm calling J.G. Wentworth.
Do you need cash now?
It's my money and I need it now!
But seriously, I donβt think the regime is going to volunteer rebates. I think theyβre going to hold on to the cash until and unless corporations and individuals who have paid those tariffs sue the government and win.
Not even. The big corps mostly sold the potential rebates for cheap. Investment companies (ie the billionaires) picked them up and likely bribed the SC judges to get a big payday.
Corporations might get paid but not us lol
HA HA HA HA HA HA! [inhales] HAAAAA!
It's like $120 billion right? 350 million folks in America, so if my math is right I should get..... $300-something bucks!
Maybe I'll invest it in some new food.

I think you're missing a zero.
But the truth is, if there even are any refunds, it'll go to the corporations who raised their prices to pass on the costs to the consumers, but the consumers won't get shit back.
Also, corporations probably won't be lowering their prices, even if the tariffs are rolled back. So they'll basically just see a spike in their profits while everyone in the US continues to get robbed.
Trump seems like an accelerationist trying to speed up late stage capitalism and it's inevitable fall
See, THAT'S money talk!
All in on rice futures, and by that I mean, a bag of rice
Time to get 100 coffees!
Looks like Aliexpress is back on the menu boys!
