City Market price comparison
City Market is an urban chain, the kind you drop into for a small midweek shop. Those are the trips where the price is easiest to ignore, because the total is small — but several small shops a week add up to a sum that is hard to see unless you look. Kniham lets you check those too: scan on the way to the till and see what the price says against the other chains.
Where the chain came from
The chain was founded in 2012, and part of its growth came from south Tel Aviv, where it opened shops at a time when the food chains stayed out of the area. Today it has more than ten branches in Tel Aviv alone, and in the price publication each shop appears with an operating company of its own.
How the prices reach us
This chain publishes on its own site rather than through a shared service, so it has an address and a reader of its own at our end. Here too, what you see is the last price we read, branch by branch.

Common questions
Is comparing worth it on a small shop?
On a single item the saving is small, but if the same items come back every week the difference accumulates over a month.
Is the list kept between shops?
Yes, and so is purchase history, so a previous list can be brought back instead of written again.
Why are City Market stores listed under different companies?
On the chain's own price-publication page each store appears with its own operating company rather than under one entity. We read that publication like any other, branch by branch.
