Retailers trying to thwart price-check apps

Could be a weird coincidence, or could be them keeping an eye on their customers. But I swear on 3 different occasions I have pulled out my phone at a BestBuy to use a price compare app and note items for future research. And each time a manager looking person appeared out of nowhere asking if I needed any help. First time I didn't think anything of it, but when it happened a second and third time I had a feeling that they were intentionally trying to discourage me from taking photos of the items/upc symbols.

These days Best Buy is just a show room for me anyway. Although large devices such as washer/dryer/fridge/big TVs I am more likely to purchase from a B&M store.

You know what they say... Best Buy is Amazon.com's showroom.

GoDaddy is in serious damage control mode!

You should see GoDaddy's Twitter Feed, you can tell they are in some serious amounts of damage control.

They know they screwed up and are trying to fix things big time!
