Whenever you find a product that you really, really like, they stop making it.
Everyone knows about this variation of Murphy's Law. I could give you hundreds (well dozens) of examples. I once bought the perfect pair of sneakers. Perfect fit, perfect color, perfect in every way. I went back to the store six months later to buy another pair. The store no longer had these sneakers AND the company had stopped making them. . . . I once found the perfect lipstick. Perfect color, perfect consistency, etc. The next time I went to the store, I learned that the company no longer made this color. I would think that I was dreaming these things, or imagining them, except that this seems to happen to everyone.
(Corollary: If you find a product that you really, really like and buy lots of it, so as to store up, they will continue to make it, possibly forever, or will come out with a much-improved version of it, usually for less money!)
