Cost increase and decrease

The cost of olive oil has gone down and the cost of coconut oil as gone up. Both increase and decrease is equal to each other leveling out to our cost of making the same being the same as before the change. Customer cost on the purchase of our soaps will remain the same.

This makes me happy, considering the cost of living seems to be going up quickly these days. I have resorted to going to the post office once a week rather than Monday, Wednesday and Friday, due to the price of gas in my area being 4.13 a galon.

I am hoping the prices of our Butters, Oils and Sodium Hydroxide will remain the same so I will not have to raise our prices on our soap. I like keeping our soaps at a competitive price that is affordable for my customers, but fair enough for me to make a profit. :)
