    Or they sell you a smaller quantity for the amount desired, you pay more / item and receive less but pay less overall for the “item”

    Like a smaller box of laundry detergent or a smaller-than-normal-sized snickers.

      Not always a bad thing tbh. If you want a big variety of candy for the movie theater later (with permission to bring it inside definitely totally 100%), it’s way better than any store at getting you a wide selection.

      Sometimes I’m willing to pay more per oz if it means getting a bigger variety, over a better price per oz of just one brand.
