DTI said price guide covers 236 SKUs of Noche Buena items across following categories: ham, queso de bola, fruit cocktail, cheese, sandwich spread, all-purpose cream, mayonnaise, pasta, elbow and salad macaroni, tomato and spaghetti sauce.
Select brands in all categories of Noche Buena items had price increases such as ham, ranges from P170 to P928.50 depending on size, and queso de bola, whose prices range from P210 to P445.
Fruit cocktail is priced at P61.76 to P302.50 and cheese ranges from P56.50 to P310.
Prices for mayonnaise vary from P20.40 to P245.85, sandwich spread costs P27 to P263.60.

Consumers are also encouraged to consider bulk purchases, as well as special promotions and discounts that may be available to achieve savings per unit.
