    They’re super cheap here too, but Walgreens at almost every location I’ve been to locks up absolutely everything

      To be fair ….i live in a small town. I don’t tend to go other places and buy tooth brushes, but at the same time only expensive items are locked up.

        Deodorant is the thing here

        Also for some reason laundry detergent? Like, just get purex and be done with it, like $10 for a year supply.

          From what I understand laundry detergent (especially Tide) is used as a black market currency because the value is relatively stable and everyone needs it eventually.

          I found a wholesaler that sells a 5gal bucket of laundry detergent for $45, lasts probably 6 months.

            We’re a small household with minimal laundry so 5 gallons is more like a 10 year supply for us… I’m here for it : D

              Looking around online they’re a bit more than $50. It might be worth it to look around locally, I bet you have a laundry janitorial wholesaler near you.
