Frustration -this time David's cookies

Purchasing less & less now that I have learned to research prices. Here the meltaways are $69 for 3lbs vs wm $35 for 2# in metal can. At @ 35 spent I get free shipping-always.
From the get go aggravated must purchase lg amts or more than one item as I am a household of one. Used to enjoy watching, especially late at nite when insomnia present, however, now, not so much.
HSN & QVC u do not since owning both, have a monopoly on tv shopping, as impulse buyhing is down With this horrific inflation, as folks are becoming wise/spending saavy & letting their fingers “do the walking” for better prices. Times have changed. I am certain sales are down, as I see you running same items over & over for days, just to get rid of them. Your “advertised prices” are best u have found with comparison shopping” now mean diddly to me. Years ago u stated prices low as u omitted middle man? Hmm There is your company, then the provider of products. Are they not the middle man??
why not utilize common sense & lower prices????
