Yeah, price gouging is when stores are charging $10 for water when a natural disaster comes through and people have no other means of getting water (as an example). This is good ol' fashioned capitalism and if the prices are too high the market will dictate that.

I sometimes have to venture to JoJos for beer or other items that I know I can get cheaper elsewhere but I make that choice because I don't want to drive further, going off Moultonborough Neck on the weekend is not a smart choice and it's my own fault for poor alcohol planning.
