It is simply a matter of shopping around.

I agree, but I suspect many businesses take advantage of the fact
their market is less mobile and less internet savvy

Once again

they don't compete with internet sales because they CAN'T, not because
they don't have to

It would be unreasonable to expect a high street retailer to compete on
cost with the internet. He does have the USP that he is there in town
very convenient and easy. But that doesn't justify some of the mark-ups,
which are really just opportunism.

I am a firm believer in the free market, but I think there should be
some morality in business.
