I hesitated to buy it, then when I went back, they were out.  Doh!  Today I went to a different location of that same store.  They had plenty of the bags left.  If I&#8217;d gone to the store yesterday, I&#8217;d have paid 15 Euros.  Since I went today, I paid 30.  Yes, the price went back up.  And, yes, I paid it since I was so mad at myself for not buying it when I should have.
