Someone will have to start a website to track item prices so we can work out when the cheapest time to buy something is.

and if they pull and rfid off your phone, or a bluetooth/wifi ping to of the apps you have running in the background like the walmart app, and are pricing per individual, it won't matter what time you go to shop, your price is gonna be your price whenever you show up
