How we calculate

The basket is the same in every city. For each item we take the cheapest product that fits its description, priced for the basket's quantity.

In each city we compare only the stores that have every item. A chain is the cheapest in a city when its cheapest store there is the city's cheapest.

Not compared, because none of their stores has every item or we do not know its city: Boso, Bure, Dukat, Eurospin, Jadranka, KTC, Ribola, Stanic, Stridon, Studenac, Trgocentar and Vrutak.

Minimum number of cities for a result: 10.
