I missed the memo on dill

Saturday is grocery store day. So I'm at my local Publix [1] and I'm in the spice aisle looking for dried dill. And I can't seem to find any. Everything else but dill.

I'm looking for several minutes when I finally find a small container of dill, hidden behind a shelf mounted price tag. It's only ⅓ of an ounce (9g) and it's **how much?** $20/oz (28g)‽ The only spice more expensive that that is safron. But the price of safron has always rivaled the price of gold, but dill?

Is there some dill shortage going on? Did I not get the memo?

Needless to say, I did not get the dill.
