Alfonso wants to know what the cost of living would be in four different cities

Alfonso wants to know what the cost of living would be in four different cities. He looks at circular ads from each of the cities and finds the prices of goods that he would normally buy during a typical trip to the grocery store each week. He adds up what he would pay for each grocery trip in the different cities and calls the sum “Price of Grocery Basket.” He compares these costs to what he would earn in each city.
