My for loop keeps repeating the items being printed

Question

I am scraping a webpage and trying to print out all the bullet points on the page, but my for loop keeps repeating it in a strange way which I can't quite figure out why. This is the exact response I got for Tuesday.

Here is the section of the html(I cant give the page itself because it is hidden behind a login)

Here is my for loop,

page = open("page.html", 'r')
soup = BeautifulSoup(page, "lxml")
for x in days:
    for day in soup.select('h2:-soup-contains('+x+')'):
        for item in day.find_next('li').find_all('li'):
            print(x+'\n', item.text+'\n\n')

If anyone could help me figure this out that would be great.

Answer 1

I interpreted your question in the way that you do not want to print duplicate entries. The reason for them is that the outer bullet points also include the child tags. In order to avoid them, you only print the first item for each tag:

page = open("page.html", 'r')
soup = BeautifulSoup(page, "lxml")
for x in days:
    for day in soup.select('h2:-soup-contains('+x+')'):
        for item in day.find_next('li').find_all('li'):

            bullet_point = next(item.stripped_strings)
            print(bullet_point)

Output:
