You guys don't have unit pricing? In Australia it's required by law that supermarkets show price per standard unit of measurement so you can easily compare
yeah we have the same in europe for e.g. potato salad (price has to be listed per box and per kg) but that doesn't apply to toilet paper i think ... not a food item.
We do! What's really helpful is many products of the same category are in different units. One will be per sheet, one per roll, one per 100 sheets, one per 500 sheets... and then the true thickness is completely different, so 1 ply for one brand will hold up ok while another will start disintegrating the moment you pull it off the roll. Do you feel free yet?
I don't think unit counts account for what ply the toilet paper is.
