Maxine, yes. Went up. 6 boxes of Barilla at BJ's were 6.99.

I just made a major stock up run as I was about out of many things. I
checked and i havent shopped in 7 weeks for more than a few fresh things.
Combination of weather and medical had us living off the freezer and stocked
items. There was still plenty here but not the 'goodies' so I was mostly on
a goodies run (grin).
