Hey, it's the whats your deal thread, I had just been shopping at a regional chain in my area that does not label the shelf with cost per XX and it wasn't huge but the 5-6 things I looked at that day like 12 oz for 1.97 and the 24 oz was 3.98 for example, 4 cents more for a double size package

At local Menards today: Colgate cavity protection toothpaste - 4 oz. tube $1.00; 6 oz. tube $1.97. Hopefully even the math-challenged could figure that one out!

As mentioned earlier, a larger package with a lower per unit price is only a bargain if you need that quantity. If anyone cares, Fry's and Safeway are both owned by Kroger.

I can typically buy a 12 pack for the same or less than a six. Often times the 24 is cheaper than the 12.

I use lots of Starlight spearmint mints. From Amazon, 5 pounds are cheaper than 1 pound because I do not have to pay shipping on the five pounds.
