Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

You’re in the grocery store and want to buy laundry detergent (or whatever). You see a bottle that is $17.99 for 150 ounces and a bottle that is $10.99 for 100 ounces. Which is the better value? Sometimes the bigger bottle is not cheaper per ounce as it is with this case… The smaller bottle is 9 percent cheaper per ounce! This app will help you determine the better value when it’s not obvious. It will also show you when items are of the same value or when the difference may only be 1 or 2 percent. Happy shopping!
