Smart Shopping Guide
What counts as a unit?
A unit can be anything: ounces, grams, pounds, liters, or even individual items in a pack (like rolls of toilet paper).
Comparing Mixed Units
For the best result, ensure both items are measured in the same unit. If one is in pounds and one in ounces, convert one first or use our unit converters.
