Default Re: Grocery store tricks

Here's one Jewel does that's really clever:

You know how each shelf tag is supposed to include unit cost? Well, in trying to compare the same product from different manufacturers, one will have a unit cost in $/ounce while the competitor unit cost will be figured in $/pound!

Unless you know your conversion factors and carry a calculator this is ridiculous! Personally, I find it insulting as well.
