Does anyone know why the price of my water softener salt has gone up so

The cost of oil to produce the salt, that's why.

"My doctor says I have a malformed public-duty gland

excused from saving Universes."


I buy the 25 lb. block of salt for about 3.50 at the local grocery store.


That comes out a lot more expensive than I pay for the bags.
