This scrapes the product pickup API, and products are around 10-15% more than the in-person prices. Most of the time, the markup is about 10% but not exactly 10%, and there's some cases of 15% markup for cheaper items. Currently there's no obvious pattern but it's a work in progress for finding a way back to the true prices.
