(NSFW) How much can sanitary products possibly cost in the US?

Asked by Sneki95 (7017points) December 20th, 2016

Just found a Buzzfeed (whose else?) video about one disgusting strange “challenge”. Women freebled for a day, supposedly to “support women who can’t buy period products”. (For the ones that don’t know, freebleeding is menstruating without using any sanitary products, like pads, tampons, etc.)
Are these people serious? The video even states women in California spend 20 million dollars on period products each year.
How can possibly be that expensive to afford period products?
