I've never noticed a wrong per-price before. How wrong and what kind of wrong?

I remember shopping for kitchen roll once, one product had a per-price that was per 100 sheets, the other per roll. Impossible to decipher!

Occasionally, so wrong I actually notice. Which must be pretty wrong, because my mental arithmetic is not great.

There's also a thing they'll do where two similar products in jars/tins will have a £/kg number but one will be based on the total weight (e.g. including pickling liquid) and the other based on the weight of the actual food.
