I've not purchased tail light bulbs in a long time ... Is this a bad, good, so-so cost for a pair of 1157 bulbs?

For about the same amount of usage?

I filled up my gas tank at the rate of $3.61 per gallon yesterday. Although a welcome 85 cent relief from the prices of the recent past, I remind myself that it is still $1.60 more than I was paying 18 months ago.
I expect this welcome relief to abruptly reverse course and start shooting back up around the beginning of November.

I expect that that, which you expect, will be the case @ November.

Dang, that's a helluva rate hike.
I am in SoCAL and the average electric bill goes up by about $70-$100/month since early this year. I was paying about $130ish before but now it' over $230 even with the usage cut down significantly. The cost increases happening everywhere and what gives? Is there more demand? There is increases in wages and ongoing inflation but what drives the the average of 40-50% increases?

No joke!
I gave my son a Classic 30 amp a couple years ago. Last year in August, I bought a quartet of Sovtek EL84Ms for $85 shipped. I looked last week and nobody has them in stock.
The average price seems to be around $140 and I saw a couple prices at $180 for the four.
Even the standard JJs are about $120 on Amazon and they were about $60 at Guitar Center a couple years ago.

The cost of a barrel of WTI Crude remains in decline.
Topline:
Oil extended losses for a third consecutive session on Friday, with WTI crude bottoming around the $95-per-barrel mark, weighed down by lingering fears of a demand-sapping global recession. Government data indicated weakening U.S. gasoline demand despite the peak summer driving season, with aggressive rate hikes by major central banks triggering slowdown concerns. Putting a floor under prices were fears of further supply disruptions in an already tight market. The West is working on a plan to impose a price cap on Russian crude to punish Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine. On top of that, Biden failed to secure a pledge from Arab leaders this week to pump more oil despite a top U.S. energy envoy indicating confidence that key producers have spare capacity and are likely to boost supplies. Still, the US benchmark managed to post a slight weekly gain.
As of this writing (6:33pm Paris Time), WTI Crude is trading at $94.70 / bbl and Brent Crude @ $103.20 / bbl.

The last time it was decided to punish Russia the price of a bbl dropped to somewhere around $20. They have Polaris type submarines off our coasts, what's really going on, not a question.

Each of that class carries six ICBM torpedo~missiles, each fitted w/ a really really big warhead.

And with multiple individually targeted warheads in each of their nose cones, I thought to add !

Some MIRV'd, yes, but not all of 'em, not the ones with the really really (really) powerful boomers, a single warhead dealio, intended for underwater detonation as the WH approaches the coast. Coasts. A tsunaimi-generation thing. Theoretically.
