Not uncommon for it to flucuate.
I've paid on the low end $29 for a 5gal pail & on the high end $46 for the same.
I did price out a 55gal drum @ $220. Which makes way more economical sense, but again, since it's actual use is contingent on the individual's right foot, not everyone may desire such a large amount.
SHOman04 always busted my chops for my Meth habit.
Like the fluctuating price point(s), my "habit" also ebbs & flows. Haha
