The following prices are based on an initial survey taken on Mar. 29, 2012. Many items have been updated since the first survey was taken. Most of the chosen items are found in many of the stores listed. If an item was not available the price was omitted or an equivalent item was selected. For example, Whole foods did not have many of the mass market products, bulk or generic were selected instead. Except for bananas, produce is not listed. Sale prices for any of the items listed were not included. Check sale prices at each location to get the best price for any particular product.  Some locations might have slightly different prices from other related stores. A list of the selected items is found at the bottom of this page. Additional sample market locations will be added. If you have any comments please feel free to contact us.
