A reflection on hidden price increase

[tank77]

In my local Byggmax, they only have one length of timber, and those are really long lengths, which means there can be quite a bit of waste. People don't think about this and only look at the price per linear meter.

At my local Byggmax, they only have one length of timber and very long lengths at that, which can result in a lot of waste. People don't think about this and only look at the price per meter.

Strange, Byggmax should have a similar range in all their stores, that problem doesn't exist here at least, the one with the least selection is Cheapy, with barely 15 different dimensions and only 1 length of most, the rest are special order,

A small update:
It turned out that k-rauta markets its rough plank "one inch four" as 22x95, but it can apparently have a thickness from 20-22mm. Is that even allowed?

However, I continue to buy a lot of lumber there because it's close by, and a clean and tidy lumberyard.
