  2. Week 3 - General shopping list activity
    Why did each group have a different price?
    Each group had a differnt price due to the selection available. The different brands of the same item cost differnt amounts causing a difference in price. We decided on how many of each thing to by but not what size which also caused a difference in total cost between the groups.
    Which group had the cheapest and most expensive total cost? Why?
    Group 1 was able to purchase all of the goods on the general shopping list for $78.61. Whereas group 2 spent $116.00 to purchase the exact same items. This was most likely due to group 1 looking for and purhcasing the cheapest of each item and lookin for 2 for 1 deals and items on sale. Group 2 purhcased some expensive items putting their total cost up. The difference between the two shopping lists is $37.39 when purchasing the same items.
