It depends on how you valuate your own time. The CEO of a Fortune 500 company would probably not spend hours for a gain that is so low compared to his salary.

The less you're willing to pay, the more time you'll spend trying to get the best deal. It's the same reason why coupons exist. Someone who is willing to pay more is less willing to spend the time to clip coupons out from the paper.
