Coffee
I buy a particular coffee that I can only find online or at a
Danish supermarket, where my discount card gives me 10% off.
The brand recently reduced its packs from 500g to 400g. The
supermarket then put the remaining 500g packs on offer, but they
sold out quickly. Scandinavian Products still sells the 500g
packs online, and shipping is free if I spend at least €50.
I wanted to compare four 500g packs with free shipping against a
400g pack that now costs 30 DKK more than the old 500g pack did.
Dealbreaker calculates the price per kilo and converts both prices
to euros, so I can see which is cheaper.
Norwegian chocolate
- Norwegian: Ja, vi elsker sjokolade
- Swedish: Du gamla du Freia
- Danish: ... og det er Freias salg
At Bodø Airport, one 220g bar of Freia chocolate costs 49 kr,
with an offer of four for the price of three.
In the Coop app, you find two 220g bars for 79 kr at Coop Mega.
In Dealbreaker, select Buy X, pay for Y and enter 4 and 3 for the
airport offer. For the Coop offer, enter 2 as the quantity and
79 as the price.
The result is 36.75 kr per bar at the airport and 39.50 kr per
bar at Coop.
If the bars had different weights, Dealbreaker could also compare
the price per 100g.
Laundry liquid
My usual laundry liquid comes in large bottles, but a nearby shop
started selling smaller bottles at a discount. It was difficult
to tell whether they were actually cheaper. I entered the volume,
price, shipping costs and discount in Dealbreaker. The online offer
had the lower price per litre.
