Best Buy in Howell, NJ

jv2ioz.png


As hurricane Irene bears down on the Jersey Shore, the Best Buy in Howell, NJ has taken it upon themselves sell cases of Dasani water for $40.56. One of the DJs for New Jersey 101.5 just sent this photo to theCHIVE.

At a time when it’s so important for these seaside communities to come together to help each other out (maybe even lower the price on water, eh), it’s disappointing to see a massive corporation like Best Buy not only assume zero social responsibility, but also go the extra mile to make a buck by selling bulk cases of water at the single bottle price during an emergency.

So I put it to you, Chivers. Is this ethical?

UPDATE: I just called Best Buy and spoke to one employee and a manager to confirm the photo. Both refused to answer my questions and told me I had to call corporate offices. My response was, ‘All you have to do is deny that you are doing this. It’s that simple.’
Neither party denied it. Instead I was rudely directed to corporate and then they hung up on me.

The bar is still open across the street from me on Roosevelt ave.  Loud as #!$! too
About to go get something to eat real quick before it gets too bad.
 
tornado was just 5 minutes from my house , had to hop in my concrete wine cellar with the fam'. The full storm will be over my area at 2am. Middlesex County, NJ checking in.
 
not a single dambbbbbb is given in that report @ Virginia Beach....im in tears...lmaoooo
 
It's actually illegal to raise the prices of necessities like water/bread/etc. during a state of emergency so there's an extremely high chance that Best Buy will receive a hefty fine
 
People are soft as hell.

I lived through Hurricane Andrew (Cat 5), Charley (Cat 4), and Wilma (Cat 5) and all this news coverage for a little Cat 1.

It feels crazy to walk outside. Just

and walked home from my friend's crib and I was the only person outside. No planes in the sky or cars on the roads. There was nothing else out there but me. It definitely was a

moment. When will the city ever feel like that again? I live in the BX btw.
