id | product | price | store
--------------------------------
1 | p1 | 100 | s1
3 | p1 | 100 | s3
5 | p2 | 95 | s2
7 | p3 | 100 | s1
CL> select * from table_name where product like 'p1' order by price limit 1;
>> I have a table that looks smth. like this:
>>
>> id product price store
>> --------------------------
>> 1 p1 100 s1

>> 6 p2 300 s3
>> 7 p3 100 s1
>> 8 p3 120 s2
>> 9 p3 125 s3
>> 10 p3 130 s1
