# ALDI vs Woolworths Snack Prices: Chips and Chocolate

**Use case:** 

Chips, chocolate, biscuits and muesli bars priced per kilo at both Woolworths and ALDI. Snack packs vary in size more than almost anything in the trolley, so everything is compared per kilo, with specials and the cheapest own-brand line for each chain.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/precious_bathmat/aussie-grocery-price-comparison.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
