This collection of tea came in four jars. We don't know how big the jars are, but judging from the view from above, they are apparently more than was needed for the amount of tea contained within.

Notice these two bottles. The one on the left, presumably the newer one, says "bigger size better value." Not that you could tell a difference in the bottle sizes by looking, just a slightly different shape. At the bottom, however, you notice the "bigger size" bottle has only 15 ounces, whereas the older bottle has 18! This kind of disappointing packaging happens with all kinds of products. You'll see a huge gallery of such anger-provoking packaging at Bored Panda.

Suave, Nexxus and Tresemme still test their products on animals. All 3 brands are owned by Unilever. Unilever's plastic packaging is one of the top contributors to the floating garbage patch in the Pacific. Ask Greenpeace, they can tell you all about Unilever's devastating effect on our oceans.

One of the things I like about living in Sweden is that everything in the store is labeled with a "jämförpris" - a comparison price. In this case it would be dollars/ounce. For things that don't go bad, and where size doesn't matter much, like shampoo for the home shower, I'll pick based on that price rather than the total. I tried to do that in the US, but my mental math skills aren't that good, and it's awkward to pull up a calculator to figure it out for everything.
