October 26, 2015 Kh-Index | Frugal wife savings in September
26
October
2015
The cost of cooking one standard portion of khachapuri stood at 3.46GEL in September 2015. Compared to the previous month (August 2015) the Index lost 0.9%; in yearly terms (compared to September 2014), it actually gained 3.2%.
While most expensive in the average sense, Batumi offers the greatest savings for those “frugal housewives” who care to look for the cheapest ingredients. A frugal housewife would pay only 3.07 GEL for one portion of khachapuri in Batumi, saving a solid 14% of the average price. Tbilisi and Kutaisi are somewhat less friendly for frugal housewives, offerings saving 12.4 % and 11.8%, respectively. There are even fewer bargains in Telavi – the smallest city in our sample, – where frugal housewives could save only about 10.7% of the average, paying about 3.09GEL for one portion of khachapuri.
