Legal Question
reporting prices, price compariso
I would like to create a resource for
friends/interested parties that enables
them to compare the prices of certain
items sold at local establishments. As
an oversimplified example, I may report
that the price of a 20 oz bottle of cola
is:
$1.25 at ABC Grocery
$1.29 at XYZ Mart
$1.50 at MNO Convenience Store
etc.
I plan to write a disclaimer saying that
this was the price on date xxxxx. No
guarantee this price is accurate as of
right now.
Am I at liberty to report such
information? Must I ask permission of
the local establishments? On one hand
it seems fair for me to report without
permission, but on the other hand
potentially legally hazardous.
Any advisement is greatly appreciated.
