Change history

  1. Added

    fix pass after the batch check — every source re-opened and each line moved to a page that shows its number. Beer restated per pint from the Mollica half-litre price; rice, milk, wine, gasoline, pharmacy and summer dress updated to the prices their pages show today; fast-food combo, gym, tennis, haircut and laundry switched to named borrowed prices after the local pages failed; apartment and monthly-stay lines restated inside the verified listing bands (rents 650–800, monthly apartments 608–1,056, rooms from 663); utilities rebuilt from the official energy spend tables; internet and mobile totals, groceries, transport, dining, leisure, visa fees and the ride-hailing trip recomputed so each equals its stated formula; tourist housing reanchored on the nightly equivalents of the monthly listings; bread and the private doctor visit left without a live source and listed as not verified.
