I'm going shopping for some groceries and I want to compare prices. What's the best way to do that?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
One of the best ways to compare prices is to check the unit price, which is usually shown on the price tag. It's the price per ounce, pound, or liter, and it helps you see which item is the best value.<|im_end|>

That makes sense. What if the unit prices aren't shown? How can I figure it out?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
If the unit prices aren't shown, you can calculate it yourself by dividing the total price by the weight or volume of the item. For example, if a 2-pound bag of rice costs $3, the unit price would be $1.50 per pound.<|im_end|>
