Along with Walmart, Costco, every major food chain, etc. that sells flats of water from $5-$10 depending on brand. If you want to justify a 900% increase in the price of a flat of water by one Home Depot store over night to screw over your fellow Calgarians then that is up to you I guess. But even corporate Home Depot had to apologize for this. You really think that other stores pay more than this from their distributors? They could just go to any large store and buy from there if that was the case. You have obviously never been on the purchasing side of the business.

I saw the news report about this; if you look at the guys receipt that he took a picture of and sent in, he went to a self checkout and individually scanned 24 bottles of water. Regular price at a gas station is what about $1.50-$2.00 for a bottle of water... Not Home Depots fault on this one; just someone looking for Drama
