Questions:

  • Which supermarket is the most affordable in your state? Do you and your family shop there?
  • According to the infographic, which supermarket chain is the most affordable in the largest number of states? Does this surprise you? Explain.
  • What geographical trends do you notice in the data?
  • Affordability is only one factor when choosing where to shop. What other factors might someone take into consideration when deciding where to buy groceries in their state?
