Regional Pricing of Big Box stores

So this maybe a dumb question but are the prices of goods at stores like Bic Camera, DonQi, etc different outside of Tokyo?

Just because the salaries and cost of living is lower outside of Tokyo, I wonder if Japanese people can afford those stores on lower average salaries outside of Tokyo?

Or are the prices set to target markets based on national average/percentile income rather than regional?

Ultimately I guess I wanna know if I should do a ton of shopping when visiting Kyushuu during GW because it costs less than in Tokyo lol

Edit: Thanks for the answers! Tldr, rent and local groceries etc are cheap outside Tokyo but the chain stores have national pricing
