It’s not just new generations, these are basic marketing strategies that have existed forever. It’s manipulative, people see a smaller number and think it’s better, without even considering the value for a moment. Preying on the spur of the moment decision.

Walmart has been crazy about this over the years. Things like a big box of 45 ziplock bags cost $3.50, but 15 packs are $1.00.
People just assume that pricing will make sense and bulk purchasing is a better value, but sometimes Walmart is like “nah”.
I wish i was rich enough to fall for shit like this.
I understand it doesn’t make you rich, but still. Seems like exactly the level of wealth I could be trusted with
It’s 5 for whatever as well. That’s a sure ”great value deal” indicator
