As a general rule of thumb, normally anything you buy in larger cotainers is normally cheaper, due to packaging costs.



How come Intergaz, is 31,50 for 10 Kg, 3.15 per kilo,



yet 15 KG is 3.26 per kilo (49 lira )



25 KG is 3.32 per KG, (83 Lira)



Where is the logic in this, can anyone please explain, the larger the amount the cheaper it should be,



Is it me ? or am I missing something here?

Well, you did want to come to NCyprus where all the rules and logic have been dumped into the med!

I'm just trying to think like a typical NC worker here (which again has no logic) ..... maybe it's because, it takes longer to fill a larger container, hence taking up more valuable worker time?

They probably take so much in profit/tax that they have not invested in a forklift truck to handle the heavier bottles thus the customer has to pay for all the hernia operations !

You often see special offers in the shops, eg.......5tl each or 2 for 11tl
