i bought one box of curry and some potatoes, carrots, and onions for that. it took me three days to finish one serving and i still have two more prepped servings in the freezer. but at least i don't have to worry about curry cravings for another couple months

i have no problem with chips, those are gone

Funnily enough, a lot of the time the larger packages are more expensive per ounce/gram, meaning you spend more to get more.

i check the price per unit weight so at least that's not what i'm getting

I didn't say every time. I've noticed it varies by product and retailer. For example, at the grocery store closest to me, bacon is cheapest in the mid size packages, not the largest. It's baffling.

oh yes i've noticed that sometimes. it always makes me do a double take, especially if it's something very obvious like $3 per 4 oz and $7 per 8 oz
