Shopping surprises
The Bugle was out shopping the other day at a certain unnamed store that happens to be located on SBFZ, and while doing so he was comparing the prices of different sized tubes of shampoo. Initially when the wife would grab one I would invariably say why don't we get the bigger size as that will be cheaper. So in an attempt to show her how much we would be saving I whipped out the old calculator on the cellphone and starting crunching the numbers. Lo and behold though the larger size is not always the best bargain. Makes me realize that you really do need to check out the actual cost per oz. or ml. for most of the things in the store. Check it out next time and see what you come up with. Remember caveat emptor does apply in the Philippines.
