No, it's about recognizing what's a bargain and what isn't.

Here's the first half of that article, from a reader in Alice, Texas:

"I made a discovery. I purchased a jar of generic honey that read '32 oz. net weight.' I put the honey in a syrup bottle that read '24 fluid ounces.' I discovered that 32 ounces net weight of honey fits in a bottle that holds 24 fluid ounces of syrup. This showed me that the price of the generic honey was average and I made no savings. Read the labels and know the measurements."
