3 cans have to cost more than one that's a no brainer. The printed labels are a non-issue right now either size can would require labeling so there is no real cost savings there. Against past costs yes but costs now would be the same. I feel this is a big part of why there are no deals. Nate himself stated that stores wanted smaller cans, but he also said they told him the product was too expensive. It appears that it still is and that is the problem here that simply can't be fixed. This stuff is too expensive all the way around. Production cost, wholesale cost and potential retail cost.
