I don’t mind them making a reasonable profit.

Were they making a profit three weeks ago when they charged $1.59 or were they losing money?? If they were losing money, they should increase prices. But when inflation is running about 4% and they increase prices 70% in less than three weeks it seems like an excessive increase - unless there were external factors affecting prices. Worldwide sugar shortage, etc.
