Prices have gone up - yes - and I understand why people aren’t happy with that; however, why are there so many posts focused on “gamblers” and “gambling” when the price point is set by the manufacturer or retailer (not the customer - they are only justification).
To be fair, there is only one post on the entire board that uses the word “fozzies”.
