    The 14.7 oz can saves you .008 cents an ounce. Decisions decisions. I’m not that bad of a Plugger, am I?

    As Mike B says.

    Also can work using percentages. Extra 8.8% more $$ for 17.6% more stuff–8% more “bang-for-buck”!

    Check the shelf tag. A lot of times it will give you the cost per ounce of each option. Does that make me a Super Plugger?

    no the shelf tag says 10.96 per oz. , then the other says $1.62 per Lb. , then the third would be $3.25 per KG

    Saucy1121: we check the shelf tags too, to see the price per product unit (sheet, ounce, etc.) before we choose which to buy. I’m always surprised how many people just look at the big weekly SALE signs and assume those are the best buys.

    The former 1/2 gallon ice cream container is now 1.75 quarts.

    What this country needs is a good 2-quart half gallon.
