      Presenting the pricing as if it represents a bulk discount when it doesn’t.

      The only reason to do this is to trick people who can’t do multiplication into buying more.

        I’d argue it’s a nice thing to make the costs obvious for people who can’t do multiplication.

        You can clearly see there is a sticker over the original price. It originally probably was a bulk deal that the store reduced to an all around deal.

        You’re over here bitching about people who can’t do math and you can’t even see.

            Oh, does “bitching” offend you? Would you rather I say “you are so prepared to be annoyed by something that you completely gloss over the facts in front of you so that you can present the situation in a negative light”? Is that better? Ffs, they LOWERED the price and you’re over here spouting Big Capitalism Conspiracies®.

            I’m way more worried that there are people like you amongst us than I am of Big Sweater confusing me with multiplication. Maybe worry more about the education system if a tag like that is so confusing to you.
