online shopping

Looking to buy stuff online? Wanting to spend a little as possible, so you shop around to find that lowest price? According to this CNN article, that doesnt' always get you the lowest price.

There was a lot of information on this article that I already knew. Stores can change the prices on items from person to person

"...unless doing so discriminates against a consumer's race or gender or violates antitrust or price-fixing laws."

The article talks about how one person found that a site gave him different prices depending on if they have previously visited price comparison sites.

It also talks about how something similar happened to a person that got a lower price at Amazon after a person deleted "electronic tags on his computer that identified him as a regular customer."
