Ouncery Prototype

Which one is actually cheaper?

The big number on a shelf tag is what you pay. The comparison is the price per ounce. Change these two tags to match what’s in your hands.

Package A
Unit price 25.0¢ per ounce

Package A

Package B
Unit price 20.0¢ per ounce

Package B Cheaper per ounce

Package B costs less: 20.0¢ per ounce against 25.0¢. The higher shelf price is the cheaper package.

The starting numbers are made up, not store prices. Nothing you type here is saved or sent. Compare pounds, counts, or milliliters in the full tool.

Monthly bills

Getting help

Why now: SNAP maximums reset on October 1, heating aid opens for the cold months, and Medicare open enrollment runs October 15 to December 7.

Free and paid

Every tool on this page is free, with no account. You do not pay to see an answer or to copy a draft.

Nothing on this site can charge you. A reader-paid packet is not on sale.

What this is not

The calculators use the numbers you type. They don’t check store prices or your accounts. Each tool lists its own sources and limits.

Ouncery is a prototype. It is not financial, legal, medical, or benefits advice.
