Is Buying a Case of Sauce from SUPER-QUE.COM Cheaper Than Buying Jars Individually?

Updated

Yes. SUPER-QUE.COM lists single 18 oz. jars at $6.60 each and a 12-jar case at $67.20. That works out to $5.60 per jar in a case, a saving of $1.00 per jar, or $12.00 per case compared with buying the same 12 jars one at a time. The case option only makes sense if you will actually use 12 jars and are confident about which heat levels you want.

The price comparison

Purchase option Listed price Jars included Cost per jar
Single jar $6.60 1 $6.60
Case $67.20 12 $5.60

The site states the case saving directly: "Save a dollar per jar." The math matches that claim.

What the case actually contains

The case is not limited to a single flavor. According to the site, you "mix and match your desired quantities of each sauce for a total of 12 per case." The available heat levels are:

  • Mild Sauce — $6.60 per jar
  • Med (Medium) Sauce — $6.60 per jar
  • Hot Sauce — $6.60 per jar

When ordering a case, you enter a quantity for Hot, Medium, and Mild, and the total must come to 12 jars. The site notes that the number of cases is calculated for you based on the number of jars ordered.

When a case is the better buy

A case is cheaper per jar in every scenario where you would otherwise buy 12 or more single jars. It is the stronger choice if:

  • You already know your preferred heat level and go through sauce regularly.
  • You want to split a case across flavors to test which one you like best.
  • You are buying for a group, an event, or as gifts.

When single jars are the better buy

Buying individually costs more per jar, but it avoids paying upfront for sauce you may not finish. Single jars are the better fit if:

  • You are trying SUPER-QUE.COM for the first time.
  • You are unsure whether you prefer Mild, Medium, or Hot.
  • You only need one or two jars.

A practical middle path: order a few single jars first to settle on a flavor, then move to a case once you know what you want.

How to place either order

  1. Go to the store section of SUPER-QUE.COM.
  2. For single jars, choose Mild, Medium, or Hot and select "Add to Cart."
  3. For a case, select the case option, then enter quantities for Hot, Medium, and Mild that add up to 12.
  4. Confirm the calculated number of cases and add to cart.

The site's ordering flow is built around these two paths: individual jars or a mixed 12-jar case.

The bottom line

At the listed prices, a case saves $1.00 per jar — $12.00 total — versus buying 12 jars individually. If you know your flavor and will use the volume, the case is the cheaper route. If you are still deciding between Mild, Medium, and Hot, start with single jars and switch to a case once your preference is clear.
