DW had been buying syrup at Trader Joe's for a while, and it was tasty, but we were out. We happened to find some organic syrup in Cosco, and had the following conversation:
DW: "I dunno.. this might be more expensive."
DH: "I sort of doubt it. It's $13 for a liter. How much does the TJ syrup cost?"
DW: "I don't know exactly... but I know the bottle isn't $13! Maybe $5? And it doesn't look too much smaller than this one."
DH: "Yeah. It's hard to say. Hrmmm... I really like that TJ's syrup. If it's close, I'd be happy getting more of it."
DW: "It's your call. I'm happy either way."
DH: "Oh what the heck! Let's try the Cosco stuff and see how it pans out!"
Next stop was TJs for some specialty items. The syrup we'd been eating was $8 for 60 mL, or about $133/liter.
