should you buy larger items or smaller items at grocery stores ?

grocery stores would have you believe that you should buy larger items – it saves you more –

but does it really ? consider who the advice is coming from … it is a conflict of interest

take the smaller item – see the cost and quantity and divide the cost by quantity – cost / quantity per unit

take the bigger item – do the same thing

now compare where the cost per unit for the smaller item and the larger item

90 % of the times it costs more to buy the larger item !!!

the manufacturer also has an obligation to cater to the lower end of the customer – hence the smaller item !!
