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 :D

Put simply


Sainsburys, two cases £18 = 30 bottles


Asda, two cases £26 = 48 bottles


You get 18 extra bottles for spending an extra £8 :D
 
Is that why you think your models are not good Al? You're always half baked when the painting is to be done:D I reckon your oil washes are just Paprika from the cupboard...ya blurred drunken modeller you.


Si:)
 
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.
 
Youch over here in Jersey a bargain 3 bottles for £6.

PS and appropriately being in Jersey that is just plain old Jersey sea water. 14% salt.

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


That's why it's beer maths :D

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

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... :D


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