Retail price at Target, Walmart, etc on this is ~$2.89 a bottle. On Amazon it's the "Amazon Choice" for $13.97 for two bottles.

You can get the normal retail prices on all this stuff and still shop online. You just can't do that on Amazon any more.

Yep, Target.com is 2.89 with $25 free ship https://www.target.com/p/formula-409-powerful-all-purpose-cl... -- but for what its worth, the online stores are mostly loss-leaders for the big department/grocery stores trying to stay relevant against Amazon.
