EXCLUSIVE: We uncovered a secret corporate scheme to raise grocery prices. 

We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items. The scary part? It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores, too. 

Our months-long investigation with Consumer Reports and Groundwork Collaborative found it could cost families $1,200/year.
