New bulk pack sizes

yoshmyster
I was shopping for eats and I went by the beer section. I see MGD is back on the shelves and in new sizes. 36 pack got replaced with 30. Then I see they got a 20 pack which just confuses me (not MGD). I mean they got 24 and 18 pack which kind a makes 20 just silly.

I remember someone here mentioning how Millennials don't know what a "dozen" is. So maybe they're going with packs ending with a 0?

    I have seen that too but the 12 oz is the most common.


    I was at a place and they were selling Honey. The had 2 displays one had a sign $5 a pint and the other had a sign $6.20 for 16 oz. Same jar different price. I just shook my head.

    99 cent stores went to 99.99 cents a few years ago, the 99 cent bread is smaller, The blueberry and cinnamon bagels still contain the same number.

    Some things have not made it onto the shelf, the most disappointing is the Andes mint chocolate bars. Now I'll need to hunt down the "new low price".

    many people are totally unable to figure the actual unit price of an item unless posted, usually in small print.....big diff in some profit centers

    My daughter bought me some ammo along with the box those Andes mint bars... I opened up the mints to Share with everybody, and found that it's mostly box underneath the green part,....[xx(]

    Then give then a message for me, quit being so stingy... Or at least package it according to the contents instead of filling the whole package with box... That way a guy knows what he's getting

    Saw some 20 packs of Pepsi, Mountain Dew & Coke as well, at the same price of a 24 pack.

    Also I see that the soda companies are now bringing back the 70's with the baby cans of soda. What's with that? The snowflakes can't finish a 12 oz cans of soda or there's too much sugar in them?

    I cannot stand the way our local grocery stores are promoting their sales with by buying 10 of something you save a dollar two ninety eight![:(!] The savings amount really doesn't mean 'hit, and just reads to me like Charlie Browns school teacher.

    What the 'ell do I need 10 boxes of Frosted Flakes for when my pantry is already full to the max of 30 pack cases of PBR?? [:)]
