Doesn't the price tag on the shelf usually have a break down per sheet or sqft?

Even if it doesn't, all these packages have the total area listed somewhere on the package. If the $/area isn't listed on the price tag, you can still calculate it manually.

Yeah. I just look at the price and how many layers (i.e. 2 ply, 3 ply) there are, and decide from there.
