Wells.pt Scraper

Collect product data from wells.pt, Sonae's Portuguese drugstore chain. Covers health, beauty, personal care, and vitamin/supplement products across Wells' national store network.

How to use it

Point the scraper at wells.pt with a search keyword (Portuguese works best). It calls the site's own lightweight search-grid fragment endpoint directly and paginates automatically — no full-page rendering needed.

Cost

CheerioCrawler hitting the site's own lightweight grid-fragment endpoint (no full-page rendering). Cost estimate: roughly $0.0005 per result (about $0.50 per 1,000 products) including default Apify proxy usage. Usage cost only settles once a run reports SUCCEEDED — reading the dataset mid-run will undercount cost, so check the final run status before comparing spend.

Things to keep in mind

• Portuguese-language content throughout
• Prices are in EUR
• stockLevel and inStock are omitted when the site doesn't expose stock data for a product (not all products carry it)
• Pagination follows the site's own search-grid endpoint, up to 50 pages per run
