    I had a gourmet coffee shop near me that did this. The 2lb bag of coffee was 2.5x's the price of the 1lb bag of coffee. So not only did you save money by buying the smaller bags, but you also could keep one bag sealed until you needed it and you could get two different flavors. I tried to explain this to the owner ( think man-bun) and he legitimately thought I was trying to confuse him and rip him off.

      @zeketor Рік тому +41

      They sometimes do this on purpose. The price for the small bag is the price they want, and the other one has a markup. You go in for 1 small bag, but since you think you're getting a great deal, you'll get 2 small ones and think you saved some money. For people wanting to get the bigger one, they just make the same ammount, but for people coming in to buy 1 small, they'll actually make an extra sale. This is similar to when you get a discount for bigger quantities, except the other way around. The point is you feel like you've played them/the system.

      I've done more years in retail than I'd like to admit, some of those bonus items stay over after xmas and similar seasons and then the headoffice turns up the price for no reason, and that goes for anything from detergents to slabs of beer... I recall wasting 2000 euros of beer just because it expired cause it was cheaper to buy 24 single cans than a 24 multipack and we were not allowed to reduce alco prices... I had to spill it all into the sewer... After 4 hours of spilling beer, the vapour alone is enough to get you drunk lol

      ​@@HProtagVtuber There are two types of bundles, one is "bundle" and another "package". Bundle is automatically maintained by Steam, it has adjusted prices for discounts and thing you own. Packages are maintained by developers, they have a fixed price - developer can set any price irrelevant to products included. This usually happens when game is on sale, but developer doesn't update package price so it stays without sale (so usually more expensive).

    If you think about it though, stores actually do this. They put on a "Sale", and then limit the amount of items you can buy per customer. If you go over that amount, they charge you extra. Actually, they charge you the price without the "Sale" but the reasons it's in air quotes is because they jack up the price before hand.

    I have seen actual specials like this. I went into a shop to buy detergent. And 1 bottle was like 6.95. So i thought cool and I grabbed one and then I noticed that there's a specials Island sort of things where there's apparently a bunch of items under special offer banner in which every item is a pack of 2 or 3 items and I find the same detergent I picked but this time it was 2 of them taped together and the price was like 14.95. I am good with numbers so I immediately caught that and went to check out with the one bottle. And the cashier was like 'hey why don't you grab the same brand from the specials, it's a good deal.' And I'm like are you serious, that thing at the specials cost more than buying two of them separately, is the additional cost the tape? I don't if she was pretending but she acted like that is a mistake from the office and she called the manager to notify him of the error so they can redo the pricing of the specials package. Later that day I went back to the shop to grab something else ( the shop is like 200mts from my home) and out of curiosity I decided to check detergent and found that the price of specials is still 14.95 but the section where the individual bottles used to be is now empty and they removed the price tag from there.

    That reminds me of that one time in a supermarket where I helped an old lady to buy 3 jars of cooking oil instead of 2 for the same price.....and I got followed by staff.
    Felt like daggers behind me as I continued shopping.

    This is brilliant actually. Rowan got rid of 2 shelf dust gatherers, at a higher price, where normally he wouldn't have sold any.

    Considering that the USB itself is on sale, 1 for 20 means the original price is higher than 20.
    Two for 50 means they want to discourage more than 2 per order, but still might be cheaper than the original price.
    For instance if #1 and #2 are in different packaging, it would make sense.

    Hush Hamish, I didn't think Rowan would catch on either 😆😆😆 Can't believe he said, "see you next week"!

    I think what makes Rowan a Rowan is that Rowan always wins in an argument against anyone.
