I don't, and will never understand this argument, because here in Europe, the Tesco in my town centre has a different price for the exact same item to the Tesco Superstore on the edge of town which also has a different price to the little Tesco Express down the road.

Somehow this all works magically here but in the US it is impossible because.. reasons unknown

So where you live there are no standardized prices by any chains at all for anything? No prices are ever advertised anywhere?

You're drawing an unwarranted conclusion that just because not all prices are coordinated, therefore none must be.

If you consider that, I believe your reasons unknown become reasons known. No need to resort to magical thinking :)
