"Trump noted that one grocery price that the savings include is a reduction in the cost of beef, which he said will be lowered by almost 15% per pound. Walmart said a pound of beef will now cost $5.94 instead of $6.74.

"This is a huge deal for the many millions of Americans who, smartly, shop at Walmart, which is a truly patriotic Company who loves the USA," Trump posted on Truth Social. "Walmart is stepping up in a big and bold way, and other retailers should follow the lead of these absolute Patriots. Together, we will make America stronger and greater than ever before." [barf]

Other savings include reducing the cost of a two-pound bag of red cherries from $11.18 to $5.63 and reducing 24-packs of Coca Cola and Pepsi products to $9.97. The packs of Coca-Cola were $14.97 each and Pepsi were $13.97."

Also the article notes this is basically a sale in celebration of the 250th anniversary not a permanent reduction
