Bulk buying

I was in our local cash & carry buying ingredients for our guests' meals, not so long ago.   Figs were on the list, for a fig sauce.   As you can see in the photo, 250 grammes cost €5.33, and 500 grammes (twice as much) from the same producer costs €5.50, just 17 euro cents more.  I bought the bigger packet.

  1. They’re keen to get you in the habit of buying the bigger.

  2. Lucky guests...if fig sauce is a sample of what is on offer, no wonder they are happy.

  3. There's figs and then there's figs. Are they the same quality?

  4. Hi Tim, as far as I could tell, they were identical.
