These Walmart Price Hikes Are Going Viral After Trump Told The Chain To "EAT THE TARIFFS"

In mid-May, Walmart announced that price hikes were coming due to President Trump's tariffs. Other brands like Best Buy, AutoZone, and Adidas have also said they'll have to raise prices because the tariffs will increase their costs of doing business. Trump, who has repeatedly claimed that other countries such as China would pay for the tariffs, responded with a post on his Truth Social platform urging Walmart to "EAT THE TARIFFS." The company, which reported $684.2 billion in sales in 2024, has declined to forecast how it might perform in the current quarter of 2025 due to the uncertainty posed by the tariffs. Well, just a couple weeks later, we're starting to see some higher prices rolling in. Walmart employees and shoppers are sharing the price hikes they've spotted in the wild. I confirmed these prices on the Walmart website with links throughout. As of the time of writing, all prices seen in these images are correct (with one exception that's now priced even higher online). Here are some of the most viral examples of these price hikes so far: doll went from $34.97 to $49.97. fishing reel went from $57.37 to $83.26. this roll of tape went from $4.24 to $9.94. The employee who posted this wrote, "The tariffs are tariffing." to a customer's receipt saved in the Walmart app, this heating pad went from $19.98 to $24.96 on the website today. this 8 pack of Play-Doh went from $5.64 to $7.47. tablet jumped from $79 to $97. this snap from a toy aisle in Asheville, North Carolina, shows prices on a Never Dry Dough Creation Station, an Etch a Sketch, and a Lite Brite Magic Screen set going from $19.97, $14.97, and $14.97 to $24.97, $24.99, and $21.97, respectively. The Lite Brite is currently listed on Walmart's website for $30.99.
