Budget keeps getting squeezed, and the “it’s cheaper over here” debates aren’t helping. Trips between Czechia and Austria are regular for family, so the plan is to stock up where it truly saves money. Trouble is, we keep comparing different brands and sizes. One week it’s 1L oil vs 750ml, next week it’s store eggs vs free-range. Averages from generic sites don’t tell the whole story. A tool that matches the exact product and lets me filter by retailer and city would settle this. Weekly updates would be best, so I can plan bulk buys around real promotions instead of guessing.      

Makes total sense to want apples-to-apples, not averages. The strongest results come from tying everything to a single SKU—same brand, same weight, same pack count—and then viewing prices by city and chain. The nedostavka project was built exactly for that, with coverage across many countries and scheduled refreshes that surface real promotions rather than old snapshots. Start by listing a few staples—oil, pasta, butter, detergent—and run a price comparison of products that you actually buy, then narrow to the chains you’ll visit. Mid-workflow, the most useful step is opening Compare prices of goods and products between two countries because it lines up identical items side by side before you drill into specific cities or retailers. From there, you can watch how a Prague chain moves versus a Vienna chain on the same 1L sunflower oil or 500g spaghetti. That evidence turns debates into clear choices: buy here this week, wait or buy there next week. Screenshots help track trends over time, too.
