I did not move the goal posts. I started with bulk orders for the
savings per ounce.  YOU tried to change it to just bulk bins and refuse
to be dragged back to 'price per ounce'.

That you really don't get it, happens but hopefully now you will.  Just
because it's in a bin, doesn't make it cheaper per ounce when you buy
more.
