My son K got his full 'G' driver's licence this week, he is over the moon. Here in Ontario there is a graduated licensing system. My daughter L's university graduation photo proofs arrived. It's time to order the photos. She will graduate next spring.
My friend S is a pretty frugal shopper. A friend told her the unit price of an item is displayed at the grocery store but you may not have noticed where to find it! In my photos below, it's located just beneath the price of the item (in fine print). Can you see it? It is 1.345 per 100g. For example, a small box of cereal is on sale. If you compare the unit price of the small box and the unit price of a large box, you might discover that it is still cheaper to buy a large box of cereal!

I guess your son and daughter must be very excited for different reasons. I can't believe L is graduating next spring. It seems like just yesterday that she was a freshman.
ReplyDeleteThe majority of our products have the unit price displayed - as you say it makes for interesting comparisons. Large versus Small doesn't always turn out the way you think. It was cheaper for me to buy 300 tea bags in 100s the other week rather than the large 300 pack!

Have fun choosing the photos, and congrats t your son on his new license! Valerie
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your son and daughter!! Him on the license and her on her approaching graduation (it will be here before you know it). And I always find it cheaper to buy the bigger item. It almost always represents the greater deal it seems.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to both of your children! One more milestone under their belts!
ReplyDeleteThe grocery or any store for that matter, can be very tricky with their advertisement in ripping us off!
As my eyes are getting older it's sometimes hard to read the small print on the price tags, so I've been known to pull out my phone and use the calculator to find the unit price.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your kids.

ReplyDeleteI would have missed that!
ReplyDeleteThat is smart shopping. I keep a small calculator in my purse for such things, but don't often bother with it. I should make a bigger effort, which will save money.
ReplyDeleteHave fun choosing photos! I always enjoy doing that. And congratulations to your son!
