That is the sort of deal where you want to know the price first.
. I think I get NZ$0.50 cents a Kg. That's close enough to American 25 cents a Lb to me. Exchange rate & such.

Its just that this sort of sale is a 6 monthly or more situation and you don't want to get ripped off, as a bad price, you might consider the space used more valuable.
I had something similar happen a couple of months ago with 'Plastic coated Copper wire'.
