Chickens in Morrisons

Posts: 428 Forumite
Shopping in Morrisons the other day, and noticed that their chickens priced at six pounds, all had different price per Kilo on them unless they were of the same weight. Also check on their mince meat,the smaller size will have a dearer price per Kilo than larger packs even though it is the same meat. On the smaller packs it says fifty pence of if you buy two,but it is still cheaper to buy the big pack. Conmen at work?:rolleyes:

isnt it always cheaper to buy bigger packs?
and maybe on the chickens, they ran out of per/unit tags, so had to use per/kg instead?

smaller packets of most products are dearer per kilo usually its to do with packaging and handling costs0
