We have been buying extra strong PG Tips British tea from Amazon because we think American tea is way too weak. 3 boxes of 80 were about $40 last time I bought them a few months ago. They’re now $80. Thankfully we discovered we can get an order of 6 for $60, but we have to wait until mid-February for the to arrive. Meanwhile, a single box of the same tea, which we’ll have to get in the mean time, is $20. Yes, a single box is less per box than a 3-count box order, but you still save if you buy 6 boxes. How does any of that make sense?

      Oh man, speaking of sweaters, it’s hard as hell to find decent used men’s cashmere sweaters and even the cheaper new ones are $80-100. And that’s if you want one that’s a pattern-free one color boring sweater. I have like four nice looking cashmere sweaters with a sensible pattern on them that I’ve had since probably the early 2000s that I barely even wear anymore because I love them so much and I can’t find a decent replacement for them even the last time I looked on eBay (this may have changed, but I don’t have the money to spend right now). I guess I just have to wait for them to come back in style.
