Compare product prices per unit ($/oz, $/ml, $/count) with visual comparison bars. Great for grocery shopping.

A shelf price tells you what a package costs, not what the product costs. This tool divides each product's price by its package size - ounces, milliliters, or item count - and lines the results up as bars, so the shortest bar is the best value. Enter the products you are weighing up in the aisle and it normalizes them onto one per-unit scale, entirely in the browser, so it works with no connection. The thing shoppers most often get wrong: the biggest box is not automatically the best deal, and the small trial-size package is frequently the priciest per unit of all.
A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.
Input
Flakes, 12 oz, $3.00 Flakes Family, 24 oz, $4.56 Flakes Snack, 8 oz, $2.40
Expected output
Flakes: $0.25/oz Flakes Family: $0.19/oz Flakes Snack: $0.30/oz Bars, shortest = best value: Flakes Family (24 oz) at $0.19/oz beats the 12 oz box at $0.25/oz; the $2.40 snack box is the most expensive per ounce despite the lowest shelf price.
Unit price is price divided by package size: $4.56 divided by 24 oz is $0.19, $3.00 divided by 12 oz is $0.25, and $2.40 divided by 8 oz is $0.30. The cheapest box on the shelf is the worst value per ounce - the pattern the tool exists to expose.
For each product the tool divides the price you entered by the package size you entered: $4.56 divided by 24 oz gives $0.19 per ounce, and $2.40 divided by 8 oz gives $0.30 per ounce. The unit you choose - ounces, pounds, milliliters, liters, or a plain item count - becomes the denominator, so the result reads as price per that unit no matter how large the package is.
Every product gets one bar, and each bar is scaled to that product's unit price, so the shortest bar is the best value. Adding another product, correcting a shelf price, or switching the unit recomputes the rates and the bars re-rank around the new numbers. The point of the visual is to remove mental arithmetic: the cheapest per-unit buy is the short bar, not the low shelf price.
Only if both quantities are entered in the same unit. A 1 L bottle holds about 33.8 US fluid ounces, so enter the liter bottle as 33.8 oz (or enter both in milliliters) before comparing it against a 32 fl oz bottle. With mixed units the bars measure different things, and the comparison will mislead you.
Often by design: manufacturers price small and trial-size packages at a premium because convenience carries a markup, and per-unit pricing is what exposes it. The reverse happens too - a jumbo value pack is sometimes pricier per unit than the regular size - which is precisely the case this comparison exists to settle.
