Took them awhile. Spouse was working at the Maple Leaf Gardens store preCovid when they were in testing there (i don’t remember the year)

Yep. Las Vegas gift stores have been doing it for years. That bottle of water cost more on busy long weekend and big event days, than say regular Tuesday.

As with @afransen I don't expect to see widespread dynamic pricing in grocery as I think customers would balk.

You would think? But the big grocery store chains know Canadians will just accept it. We have no choice. Like the stupid high prices we pay for airfare, internet and cell phone plans..etc.

If the big grocery chains agree to dynamic pricing, we are screwed.

Flash sales would be cool. Because we were independent, we had total control over pricing even though we had a major banner. Generally, the big guys give limited leeway when it comes to franchisees setting pricing, but definitely for something like a flash sale this could be fun.
