How do you know if you are being overcharged when buying alcohol?
After realizing that I still had data on the price of several thousands of products from vinmonopolet.no from 2017, I had to find out: Has the price of alcohol followed inflation? The data was from a web scraping project I did at the time (using python and beatifulsoup), and I was able to modify the original script to scrape it again. I then compared the products that existed both in 2017, and the end of 2024, and did some basic price comparisons. I then uploaded the data to a pocketbase instance, and presented it on the "vinflasjon"-website.
