What interesting things can be learned from the comparison of store prices?

I have a bookstore price database.
For fun, I decided to compare prices in them.
Counted all the standard pieces - mean, median, standard deviation.
Constructed histograms and scatterplots (scatter_matrix).
I made a chart with the prices of all stores, but it turned out to be some kind of motley hodgepodge. Doesn't provide useful information.
What else can be interesting to calculate and visualize?

Are there no grocery stores? It would be much more interesting.
It would be possible to count "expensive" and "cheap" shops. Reveal that in some stores milk/meat/alcohol is cheaper than in others. Try to count the "average" food packages in different stores.
And for bookstores, well, you can calculate about the same thing, but it's less vital, IMHO.
