Lime Shortage - Tiki Drinks and Food

I posted it to the Texas Tikiphiles FB page to inform the locals and someone said he saw 25/$1 (!!!) at another Mexican mart. Then a bartender friend said he just picked up a case of 200 for $12 at the Restaurant Depot. Has the shortage turned into a surplus? Hope it lasts. It should be stated that the ones I picked up for cheap were fairly small and not that juicy. Most recently I picked up a 5lb bag at Sam's Club for $4 and they're yielding upwards of 1.5oz each so I'm pretty pleased with that deal.
