For the rumours option, I'm thinking that occaisonal rumours could be automatically generated describing how metrics are affecting certain prices, and you should be more likely to just passively overhear them if you're in a shop affected by that metric?
There we go. Incentive to pay attention to city lore. I like it.

I third Geras' suggestion. Using city lore makes perfect sense for this, and is less immersion breaking when the information can be couched in IC terms.

I would like this information to be available, but I don't like the way it's added on as an OOC tag in the shop, because my character can't do anything with that OOC information.

I second Geras's suggestion that it be added to the lore or rumours somehow. Whatever the solution, I'd like it to be IC.
