I think it is safe to say that these companies are simply raising their prices, for whatever reason (higher production costs, corporate greed, etc.). Jared's advice is spot on, "if you can find the 264 pack at your BJ's, you should pick them up." But if we can't find the 264 pack, and we still need to buy Glad Bags, we're just going to have to choose from the options available to us. Maybe we can fight the machine and force Glad to sell the 264 pack again, but it will undoubtedly come at a higher price. And that puts us back in the same boat.
