Efficient
Shopping
Lists

Visualize your shopping list as a two dimensional table with columns for store, UPC, quantity and price. The price column would be nullable since price information may be unknown to the network. The store column would be nullable since a source may not be known for all items on your shopping list.

An efficient shopping list might do the following (which we'll call strategy 1):

Another example might do the following (strategy 2):

Sounds like a model of inefficiency from the perspective someone for whom you're shopping. But informationally, pubwan will be either a two way street or a dead end. One might adopt strategy 2 when shopping for oneself, specifically for things one buys often. Although some inefficient prices may be paid fetching everything on this list, it's one's own favorite items about which pubwan will have the more complete and up-to-date market information in the future. Think of the "wasted" money as a small donation to the cause of linear pricing, and freedom1 of information in general.

1Free means you don't have to pay.
