Stores are required by law to provide the price per unit/weight/volume alongside the price, so you can directly compare the price of a pint of beer to the 0.33 liter bottle without calculating anything.

Ah thanks, didn't think about that.

I just checked and REWE only lets you sort by absolute price. But honestly, you can compare prices so much better on their website than in a physical supermarket already [0].

[0] https://www.rewe.de/shop/c/frisches-obst/?sorting=PRICE_DESC You have to enter a random zip code eg 20249

there is this "400g (1 kg = 3,48 €)" - would be pretty easy to sort results by that I'd guess, good idea!
