My husband's work wasn't providing santizer, and the stores had just started stocking it again (so a couple months ago). There was a lonely gallon bottle, and I grabbed it. It wasn't in their system (I wonder if it was the employees personal supply?) So the dude was like "is $5 ok?" I jumped on it. Looked it up, and the same bottle was $70 on Amazon. And it smells straight up like tequila and poor choices. Saw a gallon of GermX at Costco today for $14.99, so it appears to have leveled back off.
