Another example of this is bulk purchases. My local grocer sells raw carrots in a one pound bag for 1.99 and a five pound bag for 2.99. Buying the bulk bag doesn't save you any money until you use more than one pound of carrots before they go bad.

but if you like carrotts then it's a hell of a deal
