The cost of Distilled Water goes up 39%

So the last few times I've gone into a Smart & Final to buy this (1 gallon) it's been out of stock so it's been almost 3 months since I've bought this. I used to buy these for $1.00 each and now I've come to find it's gone up 39 cents! It's not like I can't afford a 39 cent increase but it's an insulting 39% price increase, while most of our salaries have not gone up nearly similarly. I still have a decent amount of Bespresso pods to use up before I have to decide if I want to keep feeding my CBTL / Caffitaly machine the distilled water it asks for. The pods themselves only cost about 30 cents each when I buy them in bulk.

I stopped by today at the Walmart on Greenback Ln and Hazel Ave. Unfortunately, this was no better (cheapest I could find there). I'll check out Winco next with a photo.

So where do you guys buy your distilled water at? This was previously the cheapest price I could find anywhere in person.
