Unit Price Fundamentals

Unit Price = Total Price ÷ Quantity

Always calculate the price per standard unit (ounce, pound, liter, etc.) to compare different package sizes. Larger packages aren't always cheaper per unit!

Common Pricing Tricks

• Package Shrinkage: Same price, less product
• Decoy Pricing: Medium size priced poorly to make large seem better
• Psychological Pricing: $3.99 feels cheaper than $4.00
• Bundle Confusion: Mixed unit sizes in multi-packs
• Sale Price Illusion: "50% more free" may not be the best deal

When to Buy Larger

✓ Non-perishable items you use regularly
✓ Products with long shelf life
✓ When storage space isn't an issue
✓ When the unit price savings are significant (15%+)
✓ For household staples used in bulk
