Plummer's putty with prolly cost about a buck and a half at home depot, or $9 at your local supplier/retailer.
My local ace hardware tried to charge me $12 for a 1/2" brass fitting. I went to home depot and got it for under $3. Same exact part. 400% higher price. That was the last time I "supported" my local retailer. I knew their prices were ridiculous and I would usually pay the rip-offs when I needed small stuff, no more.
The local supplier can bite me, I'm not the government and they are not on my welfare rolls. If they can't come any closer to competing than that, they deserve go away.
