As the picture shows, most (all??) grocery stores will show the price per ounce on the item’s price tag.

It’s usually on sales tags too.

I was FAR too old before I realized this and it’s made price comparisons in-store much easier.

I use the "price per" information quite a bit when shopping, but it's kind of infuriating that units can often be different, even for the same type of item.

Some produce is priced per lb, and others are per kg, and others per oz, and others per 100g.
