It's like when several years ago all of the prices went up for everything and they blamed it on gas prices but when gas prices went down all of those prices stayed up. They know they can get the money so they aren't going to lower them now that they are up. More money in their pocket. With the gas; it 's crazy but people do start watching how much they use and cut back so they have to adjust it but I guess we don't do it enough with other products to make them lower those prices.
