When I got up to the register, the young lady asked why I looked so sad, I told her the prices have gone up so much since I have been there last. THEN she tells me they were bought out last week by the people who own Pet Smart, and fabric is going up NEXT WEEK $2-$3 more per yard, I almost cried.
This just means we as a group, will be 'investigating other sources of supply for our demand'. When we slow our buying, they will get the message. Has anyone noticed that the worst the economy gets, the greedier business gets? Like they have to 'get theirs' before we can use it. Is it even real to believe that wealthy IS healthy? For any of us?
