Some of us cheapskates filed coffin freezers with film and paper and metro 
racks with canned and other chemicals (and say 23xl bulbs, flash bulbs ss 
reels etc) as stores died. My cost for a roll of B&W is $0 printed 8 x 10 
(of course as those on this list or that auction site know, I sold off the 
other bits to reduce this cost to $0==water for processing power for 
safelight about the same as digital...). 

Stores are still closing and film (like Walgreens apparently) is still 
cheap. Stock up!

That said if there is anyone in PDX/SEA et al wanting to horse trade for 
Polymax Fine Art, Elite etc I have more than I will use in several decades
