As i thought, value is NOT present in the HTML (it is updated in a later background call to another URL)

The actual URL is `https://www.lowes.com/pd/1000698158/productdetail/2209/Guest` so do a request to that URL, set the request node to JSON then access the values from `msg.payload.productDetails["1000698158"].price.itemPrice`
