If this shit becomes normalized for everything, I'm going to make the price equally the same for everything by simply becoming a thief.

When window shopping with a brick, one can't get too greedy as bricks don't grow on trees.

Pick up your brick on your way out.

Problem: Cost of bricks skyrockets because of dynamic pricing and the increase in demand for window shopping with a brick.

A reminder that if the price at checkout isn't what you expect, then you can opt to remove the item and let them reshelf it. If this gets implemented, you might as well just take everything you might want to the cash registers and check the prices there before deciding on your haul.

Sorry, yes it was $5.95 when you saw it. When you put it into your cart it became $7.98....Dynamic Pricing!
