Unit price calculator

Enter the price and pack size of two products to see what each really costs per unit — per oz, per lb, per count — and which one is actually cheaper. Units convert automatically within the same type (a 500 g jar compares cleanly against a 1.5 lb tub), which is exactly how we rank every deal on this site.

Product A

Enter price and quantity to see cost per unit.

Product B

Enter price and quantity to see cost per unit.

Frequently asked

How do I calculate unit price?

Divide the price by the quantity: a $19.48 bag with 22 lb of food is $19.48 ÷ 22 = $0.89 per lb. That single number puts a big pack and a small one on the same scale, so you compare what you actually pay for the product instead of the sticker price.

How do I compare products sold in different units, like ounces vs kilograms?

Convert both to a common unit first. This calculator does it automatically within each unit type: weights (oz, lb, g, kg) are compared per oz, volumes (fl oz, ml, L) per fl oz, and counts or pages per item. Weight and volume cannot be converted into each other, so if one label lists fl oz and the other grams, use the second unit most labels print (e.g. 16 fl oz / 473 ml).

Why does unit price matter more than the sticker price?

Because pack sizes hide the real cost. A $9 bag of cat food can cost more per pound than a $42 bag, and a $36 ink cartridge can cost 5x more per page than a $64 one. Unit price is the only number that ranks them honestly — it is the same math we use to rank every deal on OutletPicks.
