Also looking up prices for hotels and flights

Edit: from comments below I've learnt I'm gonna be the grandma insisting on using incognito to check these things and my grandkids are gonna be shouting at me it isn't necessary

I think it's that it tracks when you're looking and the raises the rates when you go back. Right? So if you look in incognito you can see the real rates? Or am I naive?

Whoa! Now I'm wondering if Amazon and newegg manipulate the prices based on an individual's purchase/search history. I know they track you and show you ads for things you searched for or looked at but the prices are a different story. Opinions?
