This just points out one of the largest issues with poverty...being forced to pay too much per "unit" because you don't have enough money to buy larger quantities or amortize the larger up-front cost of something that will save you money in the long run.
And, the stores (e.g., every "dollar" store) that actively take advantage of people who have less are close to criminal.
