Hey Hackernews, I always had a fun idea of making a website tell me which of Australias two biggest supermarkets to shop at based on the price of a Coke, but only once I started did I realize how complicated it was. The supermarkets themselves don't make the data easy to scrape, so instead I opted to scrape a third-party site they partner with to list their promotional prices. Since the price can change from region to region in Australia, the scipt that gathers the data (via a github action) has to scrape every single suburb that a store exists.
