## Key Points

- A kilogram of buckwheat in Ukrainian supermarkets costs from 54.99 to 104 UAH—the maximum spread among compared products
- A conditional basket of five basic products (buckwheat, milk, eggs, oil, bread) at minimum prices amounts to 221.12 UAH
- Gathering all goods at minimum prices requires visiting four different retail chains, which reduces the practical utility of the comparison
- A significant portion of minimum prices operate under promotions and may change after they end

Ukrainian supermarkets in November 2026 offer shoppers a wide spread of prices for basic foodstuffs. According to a comparison of online catalogs from four major retail chains—ATB, Silpo, Novus, and Auchan—conducted by the Styler project (RБК-Украина) on November 8, 2026, a kilogram of buckwheat can be found priced from 54.99 to 104 UAH, a 900-gram package of milk from 39.90 to 68.99 UAH, and a dozen eggs from 62.99 to 68.90 UAH. At the same time, a significant portion of the minimum prices operate under promotional offers, which implies a potential change in cost after discounts end.

### Buckwheat: Maximum Spread Among Checked Products

Among all compared categories, buckwheat groats show the greatest difference between the cheapest and most expensive offers. At Silpo, the Premia quick-cooking buckwheat kernel (1 kg) is offered on promotion for 54.99 UAH instead of the base price of 64.99 UAH. At Auchan, a similar product under the store's own brand Auchan costs 81.30 UAH. The upper limit of 104 UAH per kilogram is recorded in other chain offerings. Thus, choosing a specific store and tracking promotions allows savings of up to 49 UAH on a single kilogram of groats.

### Milk: Fat Content, Volume, and Bulk Discounts

In the dairy department, the price is shaped not only by the brand but also by fat content, processing method (pasteurization or ultra-pasteurization), and packaging weight. The most affordable option turned out to be Svoya Liniya ultra-pasteurized milk (1%, 900 g) at ATB on promotion—39.90 UAH instead of 47.30. Pasteurized milk with 2.6% fat content and a volume of 900 g at Auchan (Lukaviytsia) costs 41.50 UAH, and at Novus—41.99 UAH. At Silpo, Selyanske ultra-pasteurized milk (950 g) is priced at 68.99 UAH per package, but when buying two or more packages, the price drops to 56.90 UAH each—an example of how volume discounts affect the final cost.

### Eggs: Category Determines Weight

A dozen chicken eggs at Silpo under the Sity Dvir brand, category C2, costs 62.99 UAH. At ATB, Kvochka eggs of category C1 are offered on promotion for 68.90 UAH instead of 78.90. Experts remind that category C2 means a lower weight per egg compared to C1, so a formally identical number of pieces does not guarantee an identical total weight. Shoppers should take this nuance into account when comparing prices "per dozen."

### Oil and Bread: Stable Price Corridor

Refined sunflower oil in 500 ml bottles ranges from 49.40 UAH (Auchan) to 64.62 UAH (Schedriy Dar, Novus). At ATB, Svoya Liniya oil costs 53.13 UAH, and at Silpo, Premia is on promotion for 55.99 UAH instead of 56.99. Bread and rolls range from 17.84 UAH (Agrafon Ukrainian hearth bread, 300 g, Silpo) to 25.90 UAH (Kulinichi toast bread with bran, 350 g, ATB, on promotion instead of 32.40). Kyivkhlib loaf at Novus (250 g) will cost 25.20 UAH, and a classic Marka Promo loaf at Auchan (225 g)—19.08 UAH.

### Conditional Basket: 221 UAH and Caveats

To estimate the cost of basic purchases, Styler compiled a conditional set of five items: a kilogram of buckwheat, one package of milk, a dozen eggs, 500 ml of sunflower oil, and one loaf of bread. When choosing the cheapest offer in each category, the total cost of the basket is 221.12 UAH. However, the editorial board emphasizes that to collect all goods at minimum prices, it is necessary to visit four different retail chains. This makes the calculation conditional, as real expenses include transportation and time. If the price difference between two stores is a few гривень, a trip to a more distant location may prove economically disadvantageous. Promotional validity periods are also relevant: prices in online catalogs may vary depending on the specific store and city.

## FAQ

### How much does a conditional basket of five basic products cost at minimum prices?

According to Styler's calculation, a kilogram of buckwheat, one package of milk, a dozen eggs, 500 ml of sunflower oil, and one loaf of bread based on the cheapest found offers cost a total of 221.12 UAH. However, purchasing all items at minimum prices requires visiting four different retail chains.

### Which product has the largest price spread between supermarkets?

Buckwheat groats: from 54.99 UAH (promotion at Silpo) to 104 UAH per kilogram. The difference is about 49 UAH.

### Why is it incorrect to compare category C2 and C1 eggs by price per dozen?

Category C2 means a lower weight per egg compared to C1. Therefore, the same number of pieces (a dozen) in different categories does not correspond to the same total weight, which affects the real value of the product.

### Are minimum prices permanent?

No. A significant portion of the minimum prices in the comparison are indicated as promotional (e.g., buckwheat at Silpo—54.99 instead of 64.99, eggs at ATB—68.90 instead of 78.90). After promotions end, prices may return to base values. Also, prices in online catalogs may vary depending on the store and city.
