Here's what I want to know.

Why is the cost of a toothbrush $3-$5 at CVS or Walgreens? The manufacturing cost of a toothbrush must be $0.50, if that. Do you know how many toothbrushes are sold each year. They even offer special editions like Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck.

Proctor & Gamble must be making a mint on toothbrushes. I guess that's why I own it instead of CSBI (Carroll Shelby International), CVS, etc.

I wish I knew the manufacturing cost of a toothbrush. That would be important to know.
