Not much I can add to this story. Other than I'm outraged.

As hurricane Irene bears down on the Jersey Shore, the Best Buy in Howell, NJ has taken it upon themselves sell cases of Dasani water for $40.56. One of the DJs for New Jersey 101.5 just sent this photo to theCHIVE.

At a time when it’s so important for these seaside communities to come together to help each other out (maybe even lower the price on water, eh), it’s disappointing to see a massive corporation like Best Buy not only assume zero social responsibility, but also go the extra mile to make a buck by selling bulk cases of water at the single bottle price during an emergency.

After checking online the price for Dasani water 24 packs is anywhere from $3.99 store price to $18.95 online delivery price.

Feel free to let them know how you feel about price gouging during a natural disaster.
