Frequently asked
Why compare unit prices?
The bigger package isn't always cheaper per unit; the per-unit price cuts through package sizes to show the real value.
What unit should I enter?
Whatever the quantity is counted in — ounces, liters, sheets, pills — the label just makes the output readable.
