Hallmark raising prices: Hallmark Raising Prices Due to Tariffs

“Some categories, like ornaments, are disproportionately impacted by the current economic climate,” Hallmark’s Keepsake Ornament Club wrote in a statement, indicating that they raised prices on May 2, 2025.

“If you have already submitted your Wish List in store, the new pricing will be reflected at pickup and you may adjust your order at the time,” the company added.

Some customers have expressed their frustration on social media platforms like TikTok, while other supporters of President Trump are calling to “boycott Hallmark” due to supposed “price-gauging.”

 

Baby on the Way? Tariffs Raise Prices on Must-Have Infant Gear

 

Perhaps they should give new parents $5000

 

In effect offsetting the sales tax on items that are purchased only once like strollers from the tariffs. If the one time $5,000 payment is actually intended as an incentive to have children it's bound to fail considering that it probably wouldn't be sufficient to offset the cost of daycare for an infant for six months.

 

Yes, we should subsidize people because we need to cost them money...to do what exactly, again?

 

China trade deal announced

 

No they did agree to a trade deal in 2 days. There's only been positive talks. Trump is going for the stock market bump

 

Yeah, really the only explanation for claiming that you came to a deal and then not releasing the details until after the markets have already opened. Kind of like the UK "deal," where they released the next day that there was no actual deal but rather a joint statement of intent that isn't binding on either side.

 

MMM incoming apparently

 

Oh but some won’t consider this a good thing until every last T is crossed and I dotted…but still winning

 

What evidence do you have that it is a good thing?

 

I won’t until monday

 

So then...it isn't winning?

 

It is winning. I just won’t have the evidence to show until tomorrow. Is that too long for you to wait?

 

there isn't a deal with Britain either, no documents, no written or signed deal, just a framework out of a discussion

 

you think a deal is getting inked tomorrow?

could you provide a link to the signed deal with the UK yet

 

Good enough for me
