It won't take too long. Already one company which used to email me daily has gone. Their prices had gone way up, which probably explains it.

@4meAndyou I am getting a lot of Emails from Temu, haven’t counted but at least 6 a day for discounts and other such things. I don’t know why they are raising their prices. If they are shipping directly from China you would be billed for the tariffs and have to pay for them when you pick up the package at the post office. Now if the site has local shipper then the tariffs will be included. I know Temu has quite a few local shippers but the majority of their items are direct shipping. Local stores like Walmart, Target, Harbor Freight etc are going to have to raise their prices so high that most customers won’t be buying nearly as much. They sell a huge amount of holiday decor and I would imagine such things will not sell well. People will probably concentrate on more practical things that they have to get for daily life. And even then it may be a lot less costly to buy used or to borrow something if you are need it short term

@cherokeepatti Temu has stopped sending me emails altogether...but then I rarely ordered anything from them.

@4meAndyou Some are saying that they are stopping the ads on You Tube as well. They have to pay for those.
