In the EU, the 30 day price history is required to be included by law
Oh consumer protections, how I long for thee
Where's it listed though? I've never seen that, either online or in physical shops. Some places have 'price last changed dd.mm.yy' written on the price tags, but it's far from universal, and doesn't say how much it was before.
It's required for digital goods I believe, but I'm not really sure.

The way the law translates is that there can't have been a movement on prices in the last 30 days if the vendor is using a strike-through promotion or an amount/percentage off, so they can't just jack up the price the week before basically. So if you see "30% off! Was 100€, get it now for 70€!" then you know the item was sold for 100 for the last 30 days at least.
