Is the Big Bag Really Cheaper?

A small bag of food costs$ 2. A big bag of the same food costs$ 3.60. Which is better to buy?

The big bag has as much food as two small bags. Two small bags cost$ 4. So the big bag gives you the same food for less money. In a shop, look at the price and how much food you get. Compare the same kind of food, and the same amount.

But can you eat all that food? Think about a small bag of salad for$ 2 and a big one for$ 3. You may eat only half the big bag before the food is too old to eat. Then you pay more for the food you eat.

You also need room at home for a big bag, and enough money to buy it today.

The best bag is not always the biggest. Buy the food you need, at a good price.
