Yup, shortages and price increases on everything. I put a favorite topical analgesic into my Amazon cart a few days ago when it was $19, the usual price for the past couple of years. By the time I went to confirm the purchase after shopping for a few more items, the price went up to $24.

I put a bunch of stuff in my Amazon cart, then move it to "save for later." I check it often for price drops and buy it immediately.

Last year I bought a pair of Continental Grand Prix Classic skinwalls for about $30 each. Rode 'em for a year, decided they're keepers, and might turn out to be my main road bike tires. But when I checked prices a month or so ago they'd gone up to $45 each. I put 'em in my Amazon save for later cart and when the price dropped to $35 I bought 'em again.

Since then not only have prices increased, but USPS deliveries have been hobbled and everything is much slower now. All of my mailed prescriptions are running late and some have been cancelled and scheduled for re-delivery.

If you need something now or anticipate needing it during the next year, buy it now. I suspect things are gonna get worse.
