did someone mention gouging? Neighbors were saying earlier they found 5 gallon gas containers at a neighborhood home fix it up store priced at $25! I went and bought 25 3/16" tapcons with washers and was charged $31 at a local beach hardware store. The store owner proudly told me he sold over 10,000 the last 2 weeks. I went home and called 1-800-646-0444 -- the price gouging hotline and then wondered if he'll be as happy a few weeks from now.

What a shame.
