I wanted burgers. I spent an age trying to figure out which offer was best for me. You can have a 4 pack of Taste The Difference burgers for £5 or you can buy two 2 packs for £6. Barmy!

Since I have started shopping in Lidl, using my old Sainsbury's for top ups of the odd bits I cant get in Lidl (I cook from scratch so I often need 1 carrot or 1 garlic) I have spotted more and more odd deals, packaging that just make me laugh.

This time I noticed a Sainsbury's 920g bag of 6 salmon fillets 'FAMILY SIZE' shouts that pack for only £12.79!

Right next to it in different Sainsbury's packaging 480g 4 Salmon fillets for £5.

So you can get 960g / 8 fillets for £10 rather than 40g less for an additional £2.79!

Madness.

So I went into Sainsbury's this morning to do a weekly shop. And I found it incredibly confusing! Now I'm a 33 year old man, intelligent, financially aware but my god do they make shopping hard!

So a pack of four for £5 or two packs of two for £6 (see post 7), how on earth is that confusing. Four for £5 or four for £6 is not difficult even for an unintelligent financially aware 33 year old man, let alone an intelligent one.
