US price note

The US federal minimum wage has been $7.25/hr since 2009 and applies in states without their own higher minimum. PriceSquirrel doesn't track US retailers, so the price above is the cheapest tracked EU listing — treat this as a cross-country wage comparison, not a local US buying guide.
