  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?

    Every offer lists how much per kg that offer is. So I do not need any calculations to see which offer is cheaper at all. Why would the price per kilo become useless of I only buy half a Kilo?

      Because one is on sale, and they didn’t update the sale price. Or, alternatively, because you don’t want to be an idiot that can’t do basic math.

      You don’t know how much you need to pay for it if you only know the price of 1kg but you buy half a kilo.

  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.
