This nets to ~45% price increase in just 3.5 years.

Interestingly the new prices match inflation since April 2019 pretty closely ($6 then is $7.02 now, and the price is changing to $7.20).
That's exactly what I was thinking. $5 to $7.20 in four years isn't ideal, but seems like so many other essential goods and services have increased at a much higher rate over that period of time.
