This dynamic pricing shit is insane. There’s no consumer benefit, and just exists to find ways to squeeze every penny out of them.
Wasn’t this the same org that was using OSINT to see what your buying power was? Then increase prices based on that?!?! That’s scammy as fuck and every company is salivating at getting that.
We as consumers need to seriously revolt against this
Unsurprising that companies are now just saying „oops we got caught being greedy“ when before the story was that it was definitely Bidenflation and there was absolutely nothing they could do about it.
I really hope everyone starts writing to their congress people about this before this cancer spreads too far and wide.
This sounds like price-fixing with extra steps.
Can we dynamically price a jimmy johns order to $1 billion for the tech bros?
Can people just not use instacart? Humanity has survived without it for so long. It’s evil and abusive, not a life-saving antibiotic.
Just let go of this trash, for all of our sakes.
“Price tests” is such an enormous BS euphemism.
They literally charged different people, ordering from the same store, at the same time, in the same place, different amounts of money for the same product.
