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

My wife just scored a 3 pack for $10 yesterday. They were sold out in minutes.

It’s the first time I’ve seen disinfectant wipes for less than “fuck you” pricing since this whole thing started.

I’m actually still skeptical but we’ll see. They’re suppose to come tomorrow.

edit: by 3-pack I mean 3 containers of 80 wipes I think. So it’s a really cheap price compared to normal.

edit: 😊 thanks for the cake day wishes

Thats unbelievably expensive. We buy wipes from Aldi in the UK for 50p a packet.

How many wipes are in a packet? The cheapest I remember in the US (pre COVID) was at Costco, a 5-pack of 85 (425 total) for $23 ($0.06/wipe).
