We try to, but when you're living paycheck to paycheck, trying to find solutions to the moving target that is your wife's fibromyalgia, have a growing, energetic baby boy, sometimes you can't afford paying twice as much or more for the product that isn't sold on amazon, assuming such an alternative exists.

Unfortunately, lots of people can't afford to shop with a conscience
