Price on Amazon vs price on other shops makes it hard to avoid Amazon sometimes (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Anyone else struggling to avoid Amazon because of the price of some things? I need 3M Tegaderm for example and on Amazon it cost 28€ for 10cm by 10m roll and on other sites that are not Amazon I can only find it for pretty much double the price (shop-apotheke.com has it for 58,40€ https://www.shop-apotheke.com/arzneimittel/3816512/3m-tegaderm-roll-10-cm-x-10-m.htm and medizinbedarf.eu has it for 49,60€ https://www.medizinbedarf.eu/3M-Tegaderm-Roll-Transparentverband-unsteril-10-cm-x-10-m). Stuff like this really makes it difficult.

Anyone know where I can find this as cheap as on Amazon or at least not much more expensive?

Idealo belongs to Springer and should be avoided

I agree that it is preferable to use existing alternatives like geizhals.eu. But better to use idealo to discover European alternatives than buying from Amazon.

You can use them and then delete the parameters and cookies, stuff like ?p=65536&utm_source=PSM&utm_medium=idealo_de&em_src=pricecomp&em_cmp=idealo

Kay. Didn't know that. I used google product search, which should be avoided, too 😂
