    Beer maths !

    Asda are selling 24 bottles of bud for £13


    Sainsburys are selling 15 bottles £11 but have a special offer of two cases for £18 = 30 bottles of beer


    Now I bought the sainsburys offer due to getting the extra six bottles for only £5 extra , sounds like a bargain


    Until you work out what you get if you buy two boxes at asda for £24


    The asda deal works out much better


    If 30 bottles cost £18 for 6 extra bottles is a good deal


    Then spending the extra £8 for an extra 18 bottles is an awsome deal

      Put simply


      Sainsburys, two cases £18 = 30 bottles


      Asda, two cases £26 = 48 bottles


      You get 18 extra bottles for spending an extra £8

            Not sure why you've done the arithmetic like that Alan. Much easier to compare the price per bottle:


            Sainsbury's - £18 for 30 bottles = 60p per bottle


            Asda - £26 for 48 bottles = 54.2p per bottle.

                Well because this isn't about cost it's about how much beer you get


                That's why it's beer maths

                        And this is why I am glad that over here shops have to show a per piece price as well as the pack price.


                        makes it a lot easier...


                        my head hurts now.

                          Okay Alan Einstein, did you take into account the volume of the bottles on offer as well? Work out the price per 100ml?

                            I don't think there crap...you're always saying that nobody would want em...I just figured that with your beer maths, obviously you will need a beer or two to work that out. So, your models look bad to you because your always drunk...


                            Don't cry Al...it'll dilute ya booze.
