| 321798 | 2005-02-06 10:48:00 | So that you have to buy bulk to make the numbers match, 3x Packs of Frankfurters and 4x Packs of Buns = 1x Evening BBQ with the mates! Theres two sausages in a pan on a hot summers day. One rolls over and says "Boy, its hot in here!" and the second replys "Holy cow, a talking sausage!" Chill. |

| 321801 | 2005-02-06 23:46:00 | Yes, saw Bulletproof Monk. But assuming a traditional family of four, then the frankfurters can be easily divvied out, whereas two packs of buns would be needed to place every frankfurter in one and leave a nice round number of four for other uses, e.g. a side for dinner, or a filled roll for the next day's lunch. Why limit yourself to only one use? ;) Alternatively, you could buy one pack of each, have 6 whole hot-dogs, and have two leftover frankfurters for dicing up for a pizza or leaving in the fridge until they go 'off' - in which case you would have received the benefit of six but paid for eight instead. |

For what?? :confused: True boys just pick up the dropped item and carry on eating . None I know clean them with Spray and Wipe either . . . :rolleyes: By the way, they are spelt wieners, not weeners . :p |

| 321804 | 2005-02-07 00:23:00 | The floor is clean; the dog licked it. 8 is half a hexadecimal dozen. Half a baker's dozen is 6-1/2. A lot of things are packed in decimal dozens or half-dozens. So it's just to confuse you. Back to the thread: I think "small goods" have usually been made to "fit" a unit of weight. Asking for a pound of sausages (or saveloys) got you six. Frankfurters, or whatever, are thinner, so you got eight. Now it's probably 500 grams (or 450). |

" Well that certainly confuses me :dogeye: I must be the perfect consumer. :) What happens in thrifty Scotland where a bakers dozen is 11 ? |
