Watering down the remaining 7-in-1 shower product because they can't afford to replenish supplies because the price of everything is too damn high.

Of soap tho? Here in Germany you can buy the store brand, which is decent, for like 50 cents a bottle - which lasts you weeks.

The brand stuff (fa, nivea, axe, old spice) is 1 to 3 euros and the luxury (rituals, loccitaine, etc) 5 to 15.

That's $6 a bottle. Cheapest comparable is probably $4

Dove body wash is the cheapest per ounce at Costco. Yep, even cheaper than Kirkland.
