Comparing unit prices: a grocery example and the traps to avoid

Enter the price and the quantity for two products and the calculator divides price by quantity for each, shows both unit prices to four decimals, and says which is cheaper (or if they tie). The quantity must be in the same unit for both products.

Example: a 32 oz jar of pasta sauce costs $4.99 and a 48 oz jar costs $6.99. The first is $4.99 / 32 = $0.1559 per oz and the second $6.99 / 48 = $0.1456 per oz. The larger jar is cheaper by about 1.0 cents per ounce, which on one jar is roughly 0.50 dollars saved compared with buying the smaller size repeatedly.

  • Convert to the same unit first. A 1 lb package is 16 oz, and a 1 quart bottle is 32 fl oz. The weight converter and volume converter help.
  • Do not mix weight and volume. Ounces on a scale and fluid ounces are different measures.
  • Cheapest per unit is not always the best buy. A big pack you cannot finish before it spoils, or that is on a limited sale, may cost more in the end.
  • Check multi-pack counts: 12 rolls with 200 sheets each should be compared by total sheets, not by roll.
  • Shelf labels are a useful cross-check, but stores compare using different units from one product to the next, so calculate your own.
