With the $20.00 off coupon, I actually only paid $108.65 for the chest press machine, which is a bargain. I also paid $8.69 for a grand total of $117.34. Amazon is selling the chest press machine for $299.99, or $191.34 MORE than what I paid for the chest press machine. If I want to, I can easily get $150 to $200 for the chest press machine on Ebay, Craigslist, or Facebook Marketplace, and I don't even have to bother taking it out of the box and assembling it.
In less than 5 weeks, Donald Trump has vowed to impose a 60% tariff on all Chinese goods and a 10 to 20% tariff on all other global imports. Many economists are warning if Trump imposes his tariff plan, it will cause both imported and domestically-made consumer goods to significantly increase in price. The reason why domestic goods are expected to increase significantly is because demand for domestic goods is expected to rise as prices for imported goods rise. As demand increases, so does prices. This is why I've been on an exercise equipment buying spree. Exercise equipment is a commodity, and if purchased at very low prices, it can be resold at a profit. This is an effective way to adapt to inflation.
@@mattstaebel3543 Thank you for commenting. I appreciate the feedback. Trump is highly likely to impose his tariff plan by executive order. Trump is about tariffs, and Trump admits that he intends to impose his tariff plan, which Trump said the American People gave him a political mandate to do. Trump's protectionist tariff plan is one of 3 major planks of his "America First" Political Platform with deporting illegal immigrants and the U.S. Government not interfering in foreign conflicts being the other two. Trump imposed tariffs the last time he was U.S. President. A major reason why inflation has been a big problem during the Biden Administration is because Biden kept the tariffs that Trump imposed before he left office because Biden wanted to the U.S. Government to keep receiving the import taxes. However, I believe doubt is a good thing.

I'm stocking up on exercise equipment. FYI, I am not a liberal or conservative, and I am also not a Democrat or Republican. Instead, I am a moderate registered non-partisan voter, and to me this is not a political issue, but a practical issue of whether we should buy affordable exercise equipment now before the price of exercise equipment significantly rises on or after January 20, 2025, which is the first date that Donald Trump can impose his tariff plan by executive order.
