 * Range search can be done as follows:
 *     ```
       $true_args = array(
       	'meta_query' => array(
       		array(
       			'key' => 'price',
       			'value' => array( 1000, 3000 ),
       			'type' => 'numeric',
       			'compare' => 'BETWEEN'
       		)
       	)
       );
       $true_query = new WP_Query( $true_args );
       ```
   
 * But how can you do a search if the field value looks like this:
 *     ```
       a:3:{i:0;a:1:{s:5:"price";s:3:"150";}i:1;a:1:{s:5:"price";s:3:"856";}i:2;a:1:{s:5:"price";s:5:"78988";}}
       ```
   
 * It is written several prices. Sampling should be done by anyone, or even be the
   first.
 * Excuse me for my English)
