Normal is When Spam Sales Resume

One of the minor downsides of COVID-19 is that Costco no longer has sales on such essentials as toilet paper and cleaning supplies.

To certain households like mine another essential is Spam. Costco used to have a sale in March and September. This picture from five years ago (April 9, 2016) shows an eight-pack of Spam to be $19.99 - $5.00 = $14.99. Well, they still sell it for $19.99, but there hasn’t been a sale for a year and a half, before the pandemic.

We're down to sixteen (!) cans, the oldest of which expires in August, 2023. I suppose I can hold out a little longer before having to stock up on Spam at the retail price.

C'mon, vaccines, do your magic.
