Prices fluctuate all the time. And the prices of some products
always drop at certain times of the year. Sometimes, it's when demand is highest (
toys before Christmas); other times, it's when demand is lowest (swimsuits at the end of summer). And while we're on the subject of seesawing prices, you should be aware of dynamic pricing. It's a tactic some e-commerce sites use that relies on data, such as browsing habits and IP addresses (which tell the sites if you live in a more affluent area), to determine an item's price. To outsmart this, once you've
figured out the ideal time to buy, say, a new couch, disable your browser location, clear your cache and
try these other tricks to ensure you're getting the best price.
