Bigger packs are not always better value. This compares two products by their price per unit — per item, per 100g, per litre, whatever you enter as the quantity — and tells you which is cheaper. It is the supermarket trick of reading the small unit-price label, done instantly for any two options you are weighing up.

Frequently asked questions
What should I use as the quantity?
Use the same unit for both products — number of items, grams, millilitres or sheets. As long as both quantities are in the same unit, the comparison is fair.
Is the cheapest unit price always best?
Usually for value, but consider whether you will use it before it expires and whether you have space to store it. The cheapest per unit can waste money if half goes unused.
