It'd be nice if there was some type of regulation to prevent all this "dynamic pricing" bullshit. Instead I'm just waiting for it to hit grocery stores, because why not.

It might can hit online shopping, but it is not practical to hit stores - at least not with the recent scares and rumours of some stores trying to do on-shelf dynamic pricing.
