How we collected the prices

  • Prices were read one by one from the public online pages of chain stores.
  • Each row is for one reference unit of that type of product; where we have several prices we use the median.
  • We leave out promotional, members-only and out-of-stock prices; in-store prices and neighbourhoods can differ.
  • Details are on the Data & methodology page.
