So far… I can easily see some MBA wanting to add that “feature”. They have your driving history, they could easily route someone with Starbucks stops past more Starbucks for a fee.
Funny you mention grocery type items. That’s where I first noticed how bad Amazon can price gouge. Sometimes 3-4 times what the price should be.
Amazon has very good deals OR very bad ones. I find Microcenter often equal to or even better than Amazon in most tech stuff.
Your experience is exactly why you shouldn’t make sweeping judgement on one data point.
Photo paper isn’t really tech. It’s a supply.
It’s a low volume niche item.

SOME parts of Europe are cheap some are expensive and are subject to bad price spikes.

And no one was surprised
Blame the US military in WW2 who started the first US canine unit, they love acronyms and just shortening shit in general. It stuck and came to civilian America.
Did any one ever notice?
You automatically lose if you use YouTube as a source. How did you make it out of middle school?
Although the amount of water is shrinking. The main issue for the Colorado is abuse from agriculture. Something like 80% is being used for farming in the middle of the fucking desert. And even worse their growing shit like avocados and almonds that need a shit ton of water.
Small bladder, but I still refrain from impacting others.
Fun fact, that wasn’t on money till the “red scare” after WW2.
The pledge of alligance didn’t include “under god” originally either.
Oh! I got a similar story. My first roommate in college had a Police CD, Every time you got in it started at the first song, Roxanne… He NEVER changed the CD.
I never was a big fan but by the end of the year I hated that song.
