I Don't go to the Store to THINK..!

There use to be only a couple of grocery stores that would do this - now they're all doing this.

Prices - its 5 for $3.00 dollars or 5 for $11.00 dollars - I only want one..

Why can't the price be the individual price?

If I send my husband to the store - he'll buy all 5 of that item - help..

I don't mind once in awhile for tomato sauce, but now its everything.

I'm a great shopper - find the best deals - I don't want to pack a calculater

Obviously this gimmick is working for the stores profit.

I can't stand it - why can't the stores just post the price .59cents each etc..?

Anyone else finding this irritating? Is this group pricing going on where you live?

I agree Patsy--------I shop at Safeway and for two people, ten for ten dollars of anything is nuts. I don't want or need that much. It's great for the large family that shops in bulk, but not for a single or couple.

I can buy the one item - I shouldn't have to figure out if this particular brand is .79 cents or .59 cents. So, if I only want one - another brand is more than likely a better bargain. example Hunts verses Delmonte or the store brand.

This group/bunch pricing is not always the best deal, I find it irritating

I honestly don't want to think at the grocery store, just post the price..
