Godzilla vs. Gameron - Google Favors Amazon over WalMart
Freep | 03-14-2019 | CharlesOconnell

Posted on 03/14/2019 9:58:15 AM PDT by CharlesOConnell

I wanted to play Walmart against Amazon to get the cheapest bicycle tire-tubes so I can take my grandchildren bike riding. (Pithy-Stickers came ripe in September, I told the kids to stay off the dirt, they rode on dirt, they got flats, I stayed off the dirt, I didn't get a flat.) I used the search term "cheapest bicycle tubes online walmart amazon". I had to go 3 pages down before I could find anything by WalMart, and it didn't mention bicycle parts at all. The fix is in.


TOPICS: Business/Economy
KEYWORDS: amazon; google; walmart

Comparatively fairer DuckDuckGo is more equitable. Search "cheapest bicycle tubes online walmart amazon."

Do you mean Gamera? Giant turtle? Flame jets?

I compare the two now and go with the lowest price.

We’ve also been going direct to other stores and discovered the same. Amazon doesn’t have the lowest price in many, many cases.

Tire liners like Mr. Tuffy or Rhinozilla should be enough to stop thorns.

Exactly. Google is evil, use DuckDuckGo!

I don’t know.

I typed in shoes and 2 of the first 3 were for Walmart.

When I’m the one who has to change a tire out on the road somewhere, cheapest ain’t cheap.

I do not buy bicycle tubes on price.

I buy the Michelin AirStop Butyl locally for $7.99 each

These are simply the best available
