Target Unit Pricing Amusement

I’m not sure whether all unit prices must be converted to “per 100 count” or not, but it really doesn’t work out well for CFL bulbs (clicky for more dots):

CFL 2-bulb pack
CFL 2-bulb pack

That’s $549.50 per 100 bulbs, if you can’t make it out.

On the shelf below, however, a single-bulb pack priced out to $979 per 100 count, so the 2-pack is definitely a better deal!
