Walmart sells a head mount mini-light, $1. Low power,
but useful.

Powered by two 2032 batteries.
Those are sold in a two pack, $4

Trader Joe's stocks kelp in single bags, 0.4 oz, $1
The same product is offered in bulk, 6 bags in a
package, each bag .17 oz, $3.50 per package.

Looks like my education is dated, I need remedial
courses in economics and arithmetic -
OK gang, you got any stories of products you were
involved with, where the market price was preposterous?

Digikey has a lot of insane pricing lately.

https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/jrh-electronics/220-14H22-55PN/15612286

https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/ISOS141FDBQSEP/15856556

Lots of dinky IC's over $1000 each.

My customers should think my product is insanely priced, but so far they've not complained.

It's funny that I give them volume discounts, but they always put the single piece price on the PO. Not my fault.

Noticed that too, so jelly bean stuff is ~ normal, while
others are crazy high.
Is this some algorithmic pricing, left to run loose?
