20% lower online prices if you use a local library computer? Another reason to hate retailers.
"Lora Kelley took a trip to the New York Public Library for us and compared prices against a personal iPhone. The results? A box of Apple Cinnamon Cheerios and a pack of toilet paper were nearly 20% cheaper on the library desktop."

@Jerry@hear-me.social I’ve noticed similar with Uber here in Spain. My iPhone 15 gets quoted higher prices than my son’s 12 which get’s higher quotes than his brothers Android device
