Obviously $31 for a $4 case of water is ridiculous, but there is supply and demand. If they kept it at the normal price, some A-Hole will buy it all, the store will be sold out, and that A-Hole will be selling cases of bottled water out the back of his truck for $10-20.
So I don't mind if stores raise prices a little in the case of a hurricane or something. Afterall, supply lines might be strained or blocked and then the stores have anything to sell.
So yeah, guess I am okay with price raises prior to disasters, but within reason. $4 case of water for $8? Sure. But $31? That's not okay.
