BottlePicker open price research
How often tracked UK drinks prices change
A reproducible view of 240,054 price observations across 15,306 exact retailer URLs, recorded on 23 snapshot dates from 14 Jul 2026 to 15 Aug 2026.
What the current evidence says
2,011 of 15,230 repeatedly observed retailer URLs changed price during this early window, producing 6,039 recorded change events. This is a measured catalogue result, not a claim that UK drinks prices never move. A longer history, promotions, membership prices and changes between daily snapshots can produce a different result.

Methodology and limits
A series is one retailer URL in the UK GBP feed. BottlePicker orders that URL’s retained observations by date and counts an event when the numeric listed price differs from its preceding observation. “Repeated” means the URL appears on at least two distinct snapshot dates. The table includes retailers with at least ten repeated URLs.
This study does not compare different retailers’ titles as if they were certainly the same bottle. It also excludes separately labelled live shopping responses, delivery charges, loyalty prices, coupon codes and promotions that are not present in the retained feed price. URLs that disappeared from a feed are not treated as price changes.
The summary is refreshed after the scheduled daily price capture. The downloadable table contains aggregates, not affiliate URLs or user data.
