Airplanista 🇺🇦<p>Well my <a href="https://squawk.mytransponder.com/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>enshittification</span></a> day continues. Drove about 12 miles in pouring rain over to Best Buy in Springfield, OR to get the Apple Watch SE 44mm that we saw on their website late last night for $199, and it was $279. Opened website there to get price matching and it was also $279.</p><p>Checked Amazon and it was $267.</p><p>Drove home and ordered from Wally World's website for $199, free shipping mid next week.</p><p>These <a href="https://squawk.mytransponder.com/tags/BigBox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BigBox</span></a> stores and their ridiculous dynamic pricing schemes make me crazy.</p>
