Amazon Made You Pay More at Walmart

Newly unsealed court docs prove Amazon told brands to raise their prices everywhere — and the brands complied.

California's Attorney General just released internal communications from a 2022 antitrust lawsuit — and the details are wild. Amazon flagged when its products were listed cheaper at Walmart or Target, then pressured the brands behind those products to go fix it. Levi's was told to get Walmart to raise the price on its khaki pants. Hanes ''reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased.'' An eye drop maker said ''Walmart got their price back up'' to $16.99 — at Amazon's request.

The AG called it flatly: ''That's not competition. It's price fixing.'' The full story — including which products, which brands, and what comes next — is right here:

Walmart Can Now Change Your Grocery Prices in Seconds

Digital price tags are rolling out to every U.S. store — and some lawmakers want them banned before they go further.

Walmart is replacing paper shelf tags with digital screens in all 4,600 of its U.S. stores by the end of 2026. The pitch: it's just for efficiency. What once took employees days to update can now change storewide in minutes. But here's what has lawmakers alarmed — those same tags could flip to surge pricing the same way Uber does when it's raining.

Walmart says it has no plans for demand-based pricing. But its own patents tell a different story — and legislators have already introduced the Stop Price Gouging in Grocery Stores Act to ban the tags outright in any store over 10,000 square feet. That covers every Walmart location in the country. Here's what it means for your next shopping trip:
