New Jersey Bans Surveillance Pricing | Newark News

New Jersey just cracked down on shady online pricing by banning surveillance pricing — where companies track your searches and purchases to charge you more — potentially saving families up to $1,200 a year on everyday items. Governor Mikie Sherrill slammed big grocery platforms for inflating prices by up to 20% on staples like peanut butter, calling it “big brother” behavior.

Announced at a community grocery store in Newark, the move underscores the real cost of rising food prices and New Jersey’s commitment to fairer shopping.
