Have you ever noticed how quickly things can change in the world of shopping? Lately, I’ve been reflecting on how global events can ripple right into our carts—and this year, the impact has been hard to ignore.
With the recent shifts in international tariffs, I’ve had to make some significant decisions about what you’ll find in the store. Most merchandise that ships from overseas will soon be phased out. This change is necessary to keep things fair and transparent for you, especially as new tariffs have made importing many items far more expensive. The result? Some prices are increasing, but I want to make sure you know exactly why.
What does this mean for you? My focus is shifting to products that are sourced closer to home, with a renewed emphasis on quality, reliability, and supporting local suppliers whenever possible. While the selection may look different, I’m committed to making your shopping experience smoother and more meaningful, even as the landscape changes.
If you’d like to learn more about the tariff changes and how they might affect your shopping, I recommend reading this recent article on the evolving tariff situation. It provides helpful context for what’s happening and why these changes are necessary.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Your understanding and support mean a lot as I work to adapt and continue offering you the best possible value. If you have questions, just hit reply—I’m always listening.
Warm regards,
Kathryn Sattiewhite
