In derselben Woche wurden die Preise aus den öffentlichen Angeboten aller vier Einzelhändler abgerufen. Gleichwertige Artikel, keine Vermischung von Eigenmarken.
Die Erkenntnis, die mich am meisten überrascht hat: Aldi hat Hähnchenbrust für 5,37 $/Pfund, während Target sie für 11,49 $ anbietet. Das ist kein Ausverkauf – das ist nur der reguläre Preisunterschied. Aber dann schlägt Walmart Aldi bei Hackfleisch (6,24 $ gegenüber 10,98 $) und Eiern. Also die "Kaufen Sie einfach immer bei Aldi ein" Ratschläge lassen Geld auf dem Tisch liegen.

I got the data directly from the sites themselves. I used a JS library to help format the table.
Instructions said to cite, the table was taken from my page at: [https://swiftburst.org/price-report](https://swiftburst.org/price-report)
How does location vary this? All of these are within the same zip-code?
You should list quantities for all items. For example, I see chicken breast at Target for significantly less than you listed it here for both set quantities (over a pound) and per pound. So hard to tell what you’re comparing.
Would also be interesting to see it after factoring in discounts. Obviously thats hard to do apples to apples with rotating coupons, so exclude those. Would be worth including the very accessible loyalty cards that give you 5% off everything that several of these retailers offer.
Always wild to see how cheap a dozen eggs are outside of Canada. It is usually $4-$8 on a good day here.
This is how stores do things. They know you are likely only making one trip so they shuffle sales and discounts around to make you feel better while essentially making the same margin over a long period.
Looking at your site, you’re not comparing like for like items.
The chicken breasts: the Aldi ones are bone-in and skin-on and 2.5lbs while the Walmart ones are boneless, skinless and 3lbs, the Target ones are breaded and fried already, and the Amazon ones are only 1.125 lbs
Same with butter… walmart is real butter, aldi is vegetable oil sticks.
And ground beef, the Aldi one is for 2lbs while the others are 1lb.
And pasta, Aldi is 2lbs, the others are 1lb.
never seen ground beef at aldi over $7/lb. They sell in 2 to 2.5 packages and THAT might be in the $14 range.
