    Who really wants to use Excel to figure out if the 24-pack of Coca-Cola or the 3 12 packs is a better deal?

      I don’t need to, there’s a legal requirement to print prices per liter or kg on every price tag here.

        Does this requirement exist for toilet paper? Because I don’t know what the hell is considered a better deal based on all the marketing.

          Sadly, no. Paper towels and toilet paper are evil. Different sizes rolls with different amounts of sheets with different layers with different prices.

        Buy if you want to buy only half a kg, you don’t know how much it costs because it only lists the price for a full kg. Do you start pulling out your Excel for that?
