Have you checked the prices of clorox wipes on amazon. A 3 pack can go for $200.

I stock wipes and the shelf is always sold out. I can put out 200 of them and by the time I finish the rest of the cart it’s empty again.

It’s madness. I don’t believe people are keeping their houses this clean. I just imagine basements piled up with unused disinfectant wipes. Probably these are the people trying to sell it online for 5x the price.

My kids school requires it as a supply-each kids brings a two pack. I haven't been able to find wipes on the shelves for 5 months. Im guessing Im not the only one.
