I've looked in pretty much every store within 70 miles of where I am...no one has 22lr except for one mom&pop out of the way place, and they have  CCI 500 round bricks for $50. Literally, they are the only show in town. There is no "remain patient and persistent and find it cheaper"...it just isn't in stock anywhere.

In a few months that might change, but if you actually shoot and use the stuff...no, being persistent and patient isn't really helpful.

A fat chick is like the teacup ride at Disney world.  
It ain't the best ride in the park, but there's no line.

Yeah, I know, but I was out. Out out. As in zero rounds left. I don't like to be without. Believe me though, I won't be buying another at that price.

If you're out again, just don't shoot it IMO. It's better to buy other calibers at normal prices, shoot them for fun,practice or training. I have about 4,000rds of 22lr and I've only shot 50rds. in the last two years. I'm basically treating them like larger calibers that would be hard to find. Just because it's still technically cheaper than other popular calibers doesn't mean it's worth the price. I shoot 9mm, 45acp, .223/5.56, etc for fun and practice, but .22lr has never been anything than a super cheap plinking round. If I feel like going that route, I grab my single shot BB gun and get the same recoil signature and fun. No way would I pay any more than $24 for a 550rd. box. Laugh at that price, but that's actually $10 over what it was a few years ago at every Walmart.

If it makes you feel any better OP, I almost bought two bricks of Federal Automatch from PSA for ~34 a brick...but didn't because I thought it was too much money

I've shot about 2500 rounds of 40 cal in the last year and a half because it's been the most available ammo.... Back when pistol rounds where hard to come by I shot 22... Back when I could find cases of 223 for less than $300 I shot that... You shoot what is the easiest to find at a price you are willing to pay! YMMV

I've always used the "spend it vs. earn it" criteria. Am I spending it faster than I earn it?

Sure Disneyworld is expensive. But if I spend 14 hours there, does the cost break down so that I'm earning it faster than I'm spending it.

I'd apply the same philosophy for any other recreational activity, including shooting.

That's because Walmart is selling ammo below the "market" price.  If Walmart was selling ammo at the "market" price, it would be available, because the neckbeards wouldn't be able to flip it for a profit.

ETA:  Not a neckbeard, getting low on .22 LR myself...
