Some councils in the UK are charging flood victims £7.50 per sandbag.
(Residents in Christchurch, Dorset have been told by their council that they have to buy sandbags at £30 for a pack of four.
If you think that's bad, it gets worse, people are turning up in vehicles to flood defences and nicking the sandbags, which are then sold on for a profit.
You get the council you vote for folks, so come next election - don't let them forget why you are voting them out.)
!Note - Even empty sandbags have gone up in price:-
