A fits the bill

The correct answer choice must effectively convey the contrast (brought about by nevertheless), which goes to point that it is not the overall price saving that the consumer is looking for at Foodbasket but something else.

A effectively conveys that, consumers are only concerned with savings on items that they purchase most often (essential) in which case Foodbasket is cheaper. That means that even if the prices of other items at Foodbasket were to be higher than Shopperking, the consumer would still purchase at Foodbasket. They have purposely kept the sample data pointed out to have lower overall price to highlight that It is coincidental.

Hope this helps
