    During the pandemic the grocery store was always sold out of bread flour and sometimes yeast, and the prices of tropical plants ballooned to 2-3x the usual price, with stores sometimes selling out of inventory as soon as they got it in. Some of this I’m sure can be attributed to supply chain issues but some of it was surely also due to consumer demand.
