This is ridiculous; price gouging [View all]

You can buy a 12 pack of Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup, Chicken Flavor, 3 oz packages at Walmart for about $3.
But they are always out of stock now.

You can but it online (a 12 pack of Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup, Chicken Flavor, 3 oz packages) for $29.77 + 2.99 tax + 8.15 shipping = $40.91
