I use so little oil that I do not worry about "poison oils". I don't like the taste of olive oil at all so won't use never mind the price. I will be more choosey about things that I use a lot of but not those I don't use much.For certain items, I'll pay the higher prices. I don't use poison oils at any price. The only oil I will use is extra virgin olive oil, and I use a lot of it. I buy in bulk, so naturally, I expect a higher price. I didn't know it had gone up that much, since I last bought some.
I shop carefully buying only to replace what I've used from my pantry. Since I only shop once a month and seldom find specials, I just buy what I need and pay the price. The same way with gas, I don't look at the price because it is what it is, and I have to have it. Luckily, I only buy gas every other month when I get down to half a tank. Another plus for once-a-month shopping.
