It points up an oddity of my market.  I'll get 1 can sauce (28oz)
and 2 cans (15oz) diced.  So about even.  It's price where the
sauce is cheaper per oz in big can but the diced is cheaper per oz
for the smaller ones.  It's not much difference but it's nice
because I often need just one of the smaller cans of diced but
almost always want the larger sauce can 8-)

Oddities like what?  Different sizes of canned tomato sauce?  I
generally use two 15.5 oz. cans of tomato sauce.

 Just trying to get something topical going.
 Normally 2 smaller volumes of an item will cost more to buy than one
larger (roughly double sized).  It's a packaging thing generally.

I bought a case of tomato sauce so I have excess 15.5 oz. cans in the pantry.  I don't use diced tomatoes.  We're both still talking about red sauce for pasta. :)
