Probably has more to do with choosing well-known chains than finding low-cost chains. The Aldi's price was $43, Publix was $70, and Sam's was $106. Publix isn't low cost but is certainly well known. Sam's, with bulk sizes, isn't really a good comparison - while price per pound is probably less than at other stores, I don't need that much peanut butter.
