US shoppers at Queens's largest mall are feeling the impact of rising prices, particularly on basic necessities like t-shirts and underwear.
Retailers, including Macy's, are passing on price increases to customers due to Trump's trade wars and the uncertainty around tariffs.
Recent data shows significant price increases in footwear, apparel, and bags over the last six months, with potential for further hikes as new tariffs loom.
While some customers at Macy's are feeling the pinch of higher prices, others use coupons to mitigate the impact, as retailers grapple with absorbing some costs to retain customer loyalty in the face of tough competitive dynamics.
