It's happening in the Midwest as well. One of the larger bottle producers offshored their manufacturing to India during the pandemic and as a result glass bottles are increasingly hard to find and getting much more expensive
It's even funnier because now that they've offshored production, other companies are ramping up their production in the states and are taking over the market from the first company. Some dumbass executive saw that they could save $0.XX per unit and now is losing their once fairly captured market. Very rational and efficient

The absolute irony of living near a desert and experiencing a glass shortage.
