An automated product pricing system including a physical store system, a
virtual store system, and a control system. The physical and virtual store
systems are capable of transmitting sales data indicative of the number of
sales of identified respective products. The control system is adapted to
receive the sales data from the physical store system and the virtual
store system. In response thereto, the control system generates price
change data including a changed price of an identified product based on
the sales data received from at least one of the physical and virtual
store systems. The price change data is then transmitted by the control
system to at least one of the physical and virtual store systems to
thereby change the price of the identified product.
