If the bigger pack expires before you finish it, waste can erase the unit-price win.

Common questions

What counts as quantity?

Ounces, count of pods, sheets, or litres. Use the same unit on both sides.

What about different brands?

Unit price only compares size economics. Quality and how fast you use the product still matter.

Should tax be included?

Use the shelf or checkout prices you actually pay, with the same tax treatment on both.
