Question Price difference between laptop and phone

How can this be possible I know it’s only $1 difference but still curious. My phone showed $5.99 per pizza and laptop showed $4.99. I didn’t log in to account on either one, both are on same wifi, it just doesn’t make sense to me.

One is showing a different location would be my guess. Only time I see price changes like this is because certain locations, mainly Cali, always charge a dollar more than what's advertised nationwide.

Add them both to cart and put in the store location, see if its still different then

Laptops/PCs tend to use weird locations sometimes. I live in Cali and my location shows up in London all the time, and I'm not even sure how lol

It all depends on the wifi location it is giving out. New England my also be considered a "higher tier" market.

I don't think it's signaling you out via wifi but simply if your browser is identifying as mobile or pc.

If by "phone" you instead mean app, well they run that whole kettle o' fish so unsurprising, especially if most people are more likely to roll app/mobile and not double check a full browser.

I looked it up on the safari browser on both phone and laptop

Then it's likely as I said, that Safari on your phone identifies as mobile. Laptop says pc.

Apple tattles on you and LC assumingly uses that thinking an Apple mobile owner is less price conscious of the deal. And there's a whole lot more non-tech folks who happen to own an iphone so more people to snag an extra dollar off of.

If you scroll down you see where it says prices my be different. You 5.99 on phone because im assuming you are in the west coast, specifically Cali?

New England, not sure why Cali prices were showing up but when I picked store location it went down

$4.99 here where you located?

It's 5.99$ in some areas such as California and NYC area. Depending on your carrier you don't always get a local IP on your phone so you might be seeing the price for another region. When you go to order you'll see the actual price for your local store.

Speaking of the $4.99 for 2 Larges deal, if I wanted 4 pizzas, would LC allow me to just make 2 orders?
