I Have a Question

Why do small bottles of the top brands of Cola cost more than the large Bottles? no brand names mentioned Co-- --la, Pe== ==la

People pay for the convenience. The small individual bottles are usually cold and ready to drink.

The smaller the package, the higher the percentage cost as a whole of the packing. The actual product costs virtually nothing to make. You're just paying for the thing it comes in. Those companies would prefer you buy the biggest, cheapest version to package, but if you want to buy smaller, they don't mind charging you a premium so that they don't lose out.

@GlassDog right! When I was younger, I always thought I was somehow doing it wrong since they never stayed and I always needed multiple drops cover and soothe my darn eyeballs 😐
@GlassDog People are idiots, man. The basic knowledge of Cost Accounting. How can you not know this? It's like, people don't go to school?

That is a tough question.
bhatjc · 46-50, M
@naturegirlUK Yeah. And i do my part. Pick up the bottles. and get the ones that people put in the trash. Money is money
naturegirlUK · 41-45, F
@bhatjc good on you doing your part
bhatjc · 46-50, M
@naturegirlUK Yeah. First they charge you extra cents when you by them. In my state at least. But when you recycle you get the money back.

bhatjc · 46-50, M
@DIRTYMIND actual the recycle places. Don't really like to take glass. They want the plastic.

Convenience. Same reason candy at the checkout is over a dollar and the same candy, in a 6 pack is 1 dollar, on the candy aisle at the back 😀

I have heard, the packaging costs more than the actual product inside. More expensive packaging ? Or a convienant charge for the grab and go size..lol
