A Costco executive warned consumers that potential price hikes in stores could be a result of President-elect Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs.

Is this the straw that will break the back of the $1.50 hot dog and drink???
Do you think he’ll keep his promise about someone raising that price?
Are we about to see another CEO get got?
I was thinking it would be Trump’s fault if the price goes up.
That would be wonderful, make them suspect even each other
Probably not. Costco makes its own hot dogs in California, so they shouldn’t be directly impacted by tariffs. Plus, the CEO is extremely averse to raising hot dog prices because they bring people in the door and make the company popular.
