Who knows?
Other times the item has increased by just a few pennies...which is understandable.
But yes, "like a cat".

Yep, same here. Though a few days will pass and I have pop ups for the discounted pricing. By then I rarely bother. If I really needed something and will order right then at that time, so the other stuff is only like window shopping.

Yet its really getting funny because if I'm out and at the actual store or competitor, I can look the product over, then do the look-up on the phone whatever and use as a bargaining chip. To my favor its usually a better deal.

And don't let the clerk discourage you by refusal to acknowledge the online deal. 99% of the time a manager will approve. Guess its all about whether you want to play their game or not. Most consumers won't and that's what they bank on.
