1. I just placed an order for a new Kitchen Aid gas range

at Best Buy. I shopped at 4 stores in my city and narrowed it down to two. The range isn't in stock anywhere online and I asked both Lowe's and Best Buy if I could order the range now and pay for it at today's price before the tariffs kick in and be guaranteed that a tariff wouldn't be added after the fact. Lowe's couldn't guarantee that and Best Buy all but guaranteed it. If they tack on a tariff, I'll cancel the order. I don't need the new range, I just want it. Both stores reported that they had seen an uptick in appliance sales due to customers worrying about tariffs.
