I'm looking into different prices of beer where im from. This is different then all other provinces and the states, as there is only one chain that can legally sell beer (other then lisenced places like restaurants).. so i go to check out Coors Light..

4 tall boys - 8.00  (2 ea.)
6 tall boys - 15.45 (2.58 ea.)
12 tall boys - 21.95 (1.83 ea.)
24 tall boys - 50.95 (2.13 ea.)

This makes no sense to me ...

 here is the link, i didnt mess up any of the numbers...

And thats marketing for you. The store probably has more 12 packs than they need, or they arent selling well or something. Just buy some 12 packs and enjoy the cheap beer.

yeah usually it is priced the other way around, to get us to buy more at once.

Do they really sell 24 packs of tall boys? I guess they do, but I've never seen that sold to the public.

In Chico we buy 12 packs of tallboys (coors light) all the time. They are about $1 a piece, and the 12 packs are about 12/13 dollars.

do you buy beer often? This happens to all brands of beer all the time, the easiest way is to look by price per OZ.

we arent lucky all american brew sucks and i usually drink it cuz im poor

but all prices go up an down has to do with supply and demand om sure as well as what is in stock. not much as what is in stock the beer company tells you most of the time what you have to charge
