Employees at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport were shocked when they saw the latest prices for water bottles at a convenience store.

Shonda Jackson has worked as an airport employee for 17 years and she was shocked when she saw the latest prices for water bottles.

A single bottle of Poland Spring water is selling for $19.

Jackson observed, "I guess inflation is hitting everyone!"

Business traveler and father of two Bradley Jackson, who was passing through the airport at the time, caught up with our reporting staff and expressed his outrage at the prices. He said it was insanity.

The price of a water bottle wasn't the only thing that went up according to Shonda, who noted that she's seen huge prices on candy bars, beef jerky, and gum. Magazines were the only items that saw a price reduction.
