The Price/Weight Comparison (2 items) calculator compares two products and identifies the best deal (lowest cost) based on the weight of the two amounts, their price and any discounts.

• (AD) Percent Discount Percent on Item A
• (AW) Weight of Item A

The SHOPPING CALC compares prices for products with different amounts and prices.

• Price Compare by Product Price and Number of Items in the Product
• Price Compare by Product Price and Length of Item in Product
• Price Compare by Product Price and Area of Item in Product
• Price Compare by Product Price and Volume of Item in Product
• Price Compare by Product Price and Weight or Mass of Item in Product

Comparing Prices

Comparing prices of products of differing amounts can be hard. 

• Is $74 for a box of 40 cheaper than $120 for a box of 85?
• Is $98.99 for 200 feet of cable cheaper than $30 for 50 feet?
• Is $26.54 per square yard cheaper than $3.05 per square foot?
• Is $2.45 for 2 quarts cheaper than $6.00 for a gallon?
• Is $52.25 per pound cheaper than $0.65 per ounce?

Length can be in feet, inches, yards in English and then there are metric units.  The same is true for area, volume and weight/mass.  And what if the prices are in different currencies!!!  The Shopping Calc takes care of converting the units and currencies to a common set to make an accurate price comparison.  NOW you will know what is the better deal.
