Indiana Alert: Buy These Groceries Before Prices Rise

We all know that buying groceries is expensive, but it looks like it's about to get even worse when it comes to buying these common items at the store.

I don't know about you, but one of my least favorite things to do as an adult is to go grocery shopping. It costs so much to get so little nowadays. I'm sure you'll agree that when you go to the checkout to purchase your groceries, you are always shocked by the fact that you spent a whole lot of money, even though your cart isn't even half full. Oh, and don't even get me started on the price of groceries in a full cart. Now, we all have to worry about how much we will spend on a dozen eggs on top of everything else we need from the store.

Grocery prices in the Hoosier State and across the country have been rising recently. According to USA Today, the prices have increased due to ongoing supply chain disruptions, increased demand, and factors like avian flu. On top of that, the U.S. Department of Agriculture also expects grocery prices to spike more as tariffs could soon make it even harder to keep your family fed. This recent information comes from a new analysis from Yale’s Budget Lab. The study says that the new U.S. tariffs on imports from countries like China, Mexico, and Canada could raise grocery prices, especially for fresh produce, which could jump more than 5%.

If that doesn't sound bad enough, the analysis goes on to say:

Without changes in shopping habits, the average household may lose up to $4,900 in 2025 due to trade-driven price hikes, though adjustments like buying in bulk or switching brands could reduce that to about $2,600.

So, which grocery items have the highest possibility of being more expensive due to the tariffs? Check them out below.
