Do you want to go to multiple stores or just pay for convenience? That’s how they over charge. Best buy sells 40 dollar HDMI cables.

Shopping around can save a lot of money on groceries. It wasn’t so bad when all the stores price matched, since this could simply involve opening an app to show you all the flyers and highlighting the ones you want to price match at a single store.

Now, hardly any do price matching, so that’s one more way they’ve found to screw us over.
