Like, customers do not want the price of their Kvikk Lunsj to go up while they're shopping. So while the supermarket is open, prices shall only go down. Price increases happen overnight

Okay, so how do you deal with having all your customers shop exclusively during the last hour of business because that's when prices are guaranteed to be at their lowest?

They mean lowest highest price offering for that day.

They'll turn around and increase prices citing highest demand during that time of the day.
