Frequently asked questions
What is price per unit?
The price divided by the quantity — for example $3 for 2 units is $1.50 per unit. The lower price per unit is the better value.
Do the units have to match?
Yes. Compare like with like — use the same unit (e.g. grams, ounces, or items) for both products so the comparison is fair.
