Maybe I am overreacting, but I am about 99% sure if you went into Best Buy on Monday they didn't have cases of water for sale. But then when they start selling out everywhere and the demand is through the roof suddenly they put them out there for a price that is likely 5 or 6 times what a grocery store sells it for. To me that is suspicious and pretty lame.
As has been stated numerous times, they did not up the price. They said, "Instead of carrying 12/24 individual bottles out, we will leave them in the case for you. No extra charge."

They do not sell cases. They sell bottles. You can buy 1, 3, 7, 12, 18, 24 or more. If you buy 12 or 24, they have them wrapped for easy storage, but you are not getting a discount just because you bought more. If you want it for $4.99, go to the supermarket. They offer water as an impulse buy product. Like the candy bars. If you buy a box of candy bars, are they supposed to give them to you at supermarket prices?

If so, why?
