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.
