It's not my job to buy groceries or household items.

I have no idea what anything costs ever.

The price has been trending up quite a bit the last few years actually. Nothing drastic lately. That and quality paper towels are almost absurdly expensive now.

Just like Bush I'm clueless when it comes to prices.
I have no idea what stuff costs.

True story: February 2018, my daughter had graduated college 2 months before, and got a job in the Sacto area. I flew out with her for a few days to help get her set up. We went to the local bulk place for paper products and other household items, and going in, she says "don't worry Dad, I'm going to pay for this one". Yeah, OK.

When we got to the checkout, and she realized that the big package of TP she selected was $35, and the big package of paper towels was $40, she freaked!

Needless to say, I paid that day, but not since. It was a good growing experience for her.

It has been moderately pricey for many years.

I'd have to look at quicken to be sure, but the last time we bought any was well before the panic buying.

Not selling anything.
I sat back 100 or so rolls along with weapons, ammo, freeze dried food, medicine, heirloom seeds prepped during during the obama crime spree.
