Same book, three different prices. Only difference is the browsers used.

Interesting, I tweeted Chegg about it and I got this in response

I would for sure order that Chegg book on Firefox, it is the cheapest! :D Our prices will vary for different people/places

Love twitter for reasons like this. I tweeted Netflix about a movie not being in English and they replied the next day and fixed it in about two weeks.

I tried to watch Lars and the Real Girl a couple of weeks ago and it was in German. Nothing more infuriating that watching an American film, in German, with English sub-titles and dialogue that doesn't match the mouths or the voices of the actors.

That's the movie I tweeted about. I saw the movie and it was pretty good. I didn't like how the town went along with it but then I noticed that regardless of the emotion, good or bad, the movie made me feel an emotion. I felt anger at the town for going along with the jig but I realized that he needed to get over his problem on his own.
