Hey thanks Kuato!
We have all the prices listed per kg (in fine print) here as well, so it makes it easy to compare. Lots of deceptive packaging sizes but the per unit price solves that [censored].
Usually at our local Costco, they have price listed per lb or ounce, which is very helpful!
Not sure if they do it at all Costcos? Costco might be cheaper in the long run, if you have executive membership.

Things like that were third grade math.
Third grade spelling must be a challenge too. Mathmatics?

It is pretty sad that someone would have to post this on a forum because they can't figure something as simple as this out for themselves!

You guys take Merk too serious. I think he sometimes likes to poke people with a stick, and start a discussion, regardless of topic.

Lol for sure, but it's usually all in good fun.

Likely the smaller box even at slightly higher cost per ounce. Why unless you have a massive family 4lbs of cereal will spoil and not be enjoyable or in trash by the time you finish it.
I dislike buying in bulk....

Once the cereal math is done, you now have to figure out if the savings is worth the extra gas to Costco.

The one that's closer to your home or along your commute.
