1) Buy a bag of chips.
2) Take it home, open it, and grumble about how little is in there.
3) Dump the entire bag out into a big bowl, or on to a table, or whatever. Mix them up a bit to make sure the chips aren’t too “settled.”
4) Now dump all the chips back into the bag… that’s how it looked when it was packaged. I think you’ll be surprised at how full the bag is now.

Great post. I do want to say to one of the commenters from last year – NAB – however, that looking at the “per ounce” or “per unit” price doesn’t always help. Many many times I’ve been in stores where the same type of product (say, toilet paper) is priced out in different units – some “per ounce”, some “per sheet”, some in other ways – it’s very difficult to compare – it becomes an apples-to-oranges situation.

Carrying a calculator (which many people have in their cell phones, actually) is a good suggestion.

I’m a writer that wants to use one of the pictures on your website in her book. It looks like you obtained the pic of the woman in the grocery store holding a basket free from another source? Where?

Thanks,

Amy
