By Isabella Basco Verified| KVUE-TV (Austin, TX) Verified AUSTIN, Texas — Mark Tovar is the co-owner of Dog Day Coffee and is no stranger to price hikes. He says the coffee shop recently raised the prices on its coffee since the cost of coffee is going up. Now, he is preparing for more increases with tariffs going into effect. "Our vendor already raised the prices because they're having to purchase coffee at a higher price, so they just raised our prices for coffee roughly about 10%," Tovar said.

By Isabella Basco Verified| KVUE-TV (Austin, TX) Verified AUSTIN, Texas — Robby Pettinato, the Chief Operating Officer for Toy Joy, says price increases are nothing new. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he saw how increased shipping costs affected pricing from their manufacturers. "The scary thing that we learned, however, is once vendors raise pricing, whether it's for tariffs or shipping or anything, they never go back down," Pettinato said.
