Each price is the stored supermarket price for that plan on the date shown, the same kind of figure as the in-app supermarket comparison. A yearly figure is that week’s gap times 52, rounded down to the pound, and it only applies if you bought this same plan every week. A store with items we could not price is marked estimated and is not called cheapest. Asda is priced for shopping in store and is never called cheapest. Your supermarket charges the final price at checkout.
