Suppose we drink the three cups a day with a Lipton teabag. That would require `450` teabags or `22.5` packets of twenty bags for five months, totaling at `€58.28` for the whole period.
That's a difference less than three euros! And we've enjoyed a perhaps ridiculously expensive tea. More modest people shopping at our local dedicated tea store [TeaStation](https://teastation.eu/) in Hasselt usually walk out the door with a variant of Earl Grey for `€7` per `100 g`. Suppose they buy three packets and drink it all up in five months. That's `€21`, which is `36%` of the price of those four hundred Lipton teabags!
That's a difference of less than three euros! And we've enjoyed a perhaps ridiculously expensive tea, like a true connoisseur. More modest people shopping at our local dedicated tea store [TeaStation](https://teastation.eu/) in Hasselt usually walk out the door with a variant of Earl Grey for `€7` per `100 g`. Suppose they buy three packets and drink it all up in five months. That's `€21`, which is `36%` of the price of those four hundred Lipton teabags!
Funny detail: `22.5` packets multiplied by `36 g` equals to `810 g` tea dust in five months, compared to just `300 g` of loose tea: more than triple the weight of the leaves. Are you still surprised steeping those bags results in undrinkable bitter stuff?
