Question is probably too late and I'm not much of a stockpiler, this is more for curiosity of what others are thinking about

I know for me, the Kirkland brand whiskey is surprisingly good and also Canadian so I may go today and pick up a bottle (or at least check the price)

Cars and car parts, electronics, and clothes look to be the top 3.

Fuck! I knew I should have stocked up on bauxite!

I'm kicking myself for not loading up on "other meat"

[–] anon6789 9 points 22 hours ago

RFK will ensure there is no shortage of "other meat" 😧

Well if you're running an aluminum foundry, you really should have planned for this.

Avocados and tomatoes are sadly not stockpilable.

Please I bet most grocery store prices rise as of today due to them. Lot of business will take advantage of this. Raise prices blame the tariffs even though said products were bought and put in stock before they went into effect. Allows maximize profits.

I mean I can't stockpile them. Because the whole point is eating them fresh.

Gardening is the oldest way of piracy, just saying.

Wait, I'm supposed to steal from other people's gardens? I've been doing this all wrong.

[–] IIII 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

It's fine, you're just making a copy of their crops for personal use

So your saying I should borrow a peach tree from the store, and then graft cherries and plums onto it from other people's trees around town. I think you're onto something here.

Too late for some things. Some retailers have already marked prices up since they will pay more to replenish their inventory.

Stock up on maple syrup and natural gas.
