What happens here

Perform a simple cost-benefit analysis. Calculate that to get the same amount of tape as one roll of FrogTape (55 meters), you would need approximately 3.5 rolls of the dollar store tape (3.5 rolls * 16 meters/roll = 56 meters). Then, compare the total cost: 3.5 rolls of dollar store tape at $1.25 each amounts to $4.38, while one roll of FrogTape costs $3.99. This demonstrates that for the same length of tape, the dollar store option is actually more expensive.

Goal: Determine the true cost-effectiveness of each tape type.
