The price of eggs, chocolate, bars, chocolates and Colombo can vary up to 83.8% in Curitiba. The Procon-PR (Coordination of State and Consumer Protection) conducted a survey in nine supermarkets in the capital (Angeloni, Big, Carrefour, Condor, Extra, Mercadorama, Muffato, Sugar Loaf and Walmart) between days 19 and 30 March. When all were checked the prices of 143 products.
The survey showed that consumers can pay between $ 9.78 to R $ 17.98 in the same product (chocolate Kisses from Hershey's, 280 g).

The orientation of Procon-PR is that consumers do research before they buy products.
