Would it not be better and more insightful to take an aggregate price of 50 items (picked from various categories) at each Aldi store and create a map like this to understand how Aldis in different regions have different pricing and the difference etc?

I am saying this because currently, some items like 'Navel Orange' are cheaper on the West Coast vs the East whereas items like 'Veggie Burger' are cheaper on the East Coast compared to the West Coast.

I only have data for the advertised products in this week flyer, very limited product range in that unfortunately
Why are spaghetti and butternut squash grouped together?
Not noodles vs. gourds but two different gourds:

* spaghetti squash (named for the long fibers in it's flesh)

* butternut squash

...should probably be written with some hyphens: "Spaghetti- or butternut- squash"

...or with some parens: "Squash (spaghetti or butternut)"
