Though Ray Goei of Arcadia says he isn't worried because he still has a big bottle at home, he may find an empty shelf or a hefty price increase when he tries to get more. A 9-ounce bottle of Huy Fong's chili sauce, normally $2.49 is now offered on Ebay for $18.89 and $34.50 from a third-party seller on Walmart.com. This week, the Arcadia branch of 99 Ranch Market had the 17-ounce bottle on sale for $5.98. Pasadena Star News, p. A1, A8, July 9, 2023.; 142. 99 Ranch Market opens in shops at Santa Anita.
