Pay Attention!
Follow along:
These are canned chunks of white chicken.
The bigger cans on the left, the ones that say 28% more cost $3.50 and hold 12.5 ounces of product.
The smaller cans on the right cost $2.00 and hold 10 ounces of chicken.
The ones that are emblazoned with "28% MORE" scream for your attention.
But if you look closer, you will see that the cans with more in them also cost you more - .28 cents per ounce.
The cans on the right cost you only .20 cents per ounce.
If you were to buy two cans from the right at the cost of $4.00, that would give you many more ounces, 20 ounces, compared to the cans on the left that will cost you almost $4.00, but only have a total of 12.5 ounces.
Stores are hoping that the cans marked "28% MORE" will draw your attention and blind you to the fact that you're actually getting less for your money.
How stupid do they think we are?
You're not falling for these tactics, are you? I certainly hope not.
This kind of nonsense can not continue forever. Something's got to give sooner or later. When that happens, and it will happen, will you be prepared with a backup plan for you and your family?
Discuss this among yourselves.
