Does "ct." mean something? If not, those cookies are absurdly priced for just 3.6 grams.

    I think it means "count" like "18 ct" means "18 count" means there are 18 cookies in the package

    Since when does ct. Mean count? The only things i was able to find online, were carat (ct, unit of measurement of mass), ct count (covid-19), Connecticut (ct as shortened)

    Oh, this is why. Maybe i just was to biased to not use this search prompt, or and also that unlike in us, in my country food is not measured in count, but always in grams or mililiters. Thanks for explanation.

    ct is Count, most likely. It's possible it's a mistake; it's also possible that they're hoping people who don't have the card will see $3.99 and miss the 'price with card' note, and not check the price when they check out.

    Has it gotten that bad in America that you'd be able to put an extra $100 on groceries without most people noticing? $10 though, sure.
